Quote from @Kevin Sobilo:

@Michael Mignogno, I think its doubtful.

If you were selling a property owned by the LLC you could in theory just sell the LLC.However, this isn't often done to avoid transfer tax because its hard to verify the LLC being purchases has no other debts or liabilities. So, there are other risks.

The question to ask is at what value the transfer will be taxed on. I think since money won't change hands per se that they may use the assessment or last market sale value. Perhaps you can lower the transfer tax by showing that your LLC is buying it from you for somewhat less. I would ask a local real estate lawyer.


 This makes sense, thank you

Quote from @Issac San Miguel:

As a HML we have a ton of clients who look to BRRRR with STRs. We add value to thier strategy by giving them the confidence to take down the property and the peace of mind knowing their rehab costs will be reimbursed, allowing them to focus on the bigger picture of making the property ready for the STR market.


 Thanks Issac.  Shoot me a message and we can exchange details.  I have a few properties I am weeding though now, but would love to get more info about your lending criteria.

To all the lawyers and accountants or really just anyone who has managed to successfully do this, is there any way to switch a property to an LLC without paying transfer tax? I am the sole owner of the property as well as the sole proprietor on my LLC, so I wasn't sure if that could help avoid the tax.

Hi Everyone, I have never used the 1031 exchange, but recently decided to place 2 of my rental for sale. Can I use the profits as a down payment for either a commercial loan or a HML? This is new territory to me so any info you have would be greatly appreciated!

TIA!

Quote from @Sean Thompson:

I would start with the end in mind if you are wanting to BRRRR with STR properties. Find the company that you will be looking to do the cash out refinance with first. Find out their requirements, limitations, and leverage options. Then work your way into how you would like to initially finance the property. This will help paint a picture of what kind of deal you need and estimate project timelines a little better.


 Yes Sean, that is mostly the strategy I am taking so I can assure a path to finance prior to making offers.  I am using a local bank he who i am forming a good relationship with but their products and loans are more geared towards traditional residential loans

@Conner Olsen Thanks for the tip.  I will def starting reaching out to more local bank.  Are these commercial loans requiring 30% down?  What kind of rates/terms are you seeing?  I would be very interested if a bank offered a type of commercial home+renovation loan with a fixed rate.

Hi Everyone,

I am somewhat newer to Bigger Pockets, so forgive me if this post has already been made. I was interested to get some feedback on BRRRR with the intentions of using the property as a STR. Also, when planning to finance these deals with either HML or OPM, any good pointers? Do you prefer HML or OPM? I am currently searching for deals in Western Florida around Tampa/Sarasota region.

TIA!

Hi Everyone,

Unfortunately our CPA passed away this year and we are looking for a good CPA that specializes in or atleast has a good understanding of filing taxes for those who invest in Real Estate.  I am located in PA for the time being, but I am open going out of state if possible.

Thanks!
