Dear All,

I am in the process of closing a deal in Maryland. I have been buying property under my name, and don't have LLC set up yet. I wonder if I want to transfer the property I am buying under personal loan to LLC. What is the process? or if anyone, could point me to the right resources explaining the process or introduce me to the right person whom I can talk to. I REALLY appreciate the feedback!

Sincerely,

Ken

 Ken-

I don’t have any steps or advise, although I too have looked into this myself.

If you have an attorney and CPA it might be good to begin with them to find out the pros/cons of doing this. 

I reference the CPA since there are tax implications of an LLC (although pass through to the individual taxes) verses you as an individual tax payer. There still seems to be some differences between these two however minor.

The attorney should be able to help with guiding the legal aspects of doing this.

It’s cleaner I suspect if you own the properties out right.

I tried to do a land trust and Wells Fargo still gave me grief - luckily that note is paid and I no longer have to deal with WF and hope never to again.

Hey BP, I’m taking my next step or at least I’m trying to but I’m running into a problem because I have a property that cash flowing positive etc and I’m looking to refinance it and pull out some equity for my next deal. Only thing is the property is in my parents name so I need to either add name mine to the deed or just put it in my name only no biggie right. Jokes, every real estate attorney I contacted so far either doesn’t call back for whatever reason (even after multiple attempts to get in touch) or is uninterested in doing it. 

Is this process difficult? Should I continue calling other attorneys?

Hey Gerardo

Long time how are you. I sent you a message with a contact. Let me know how it works out.

I am not looking for advise rather I am looking for passive or semi-passive investors and who they currently employ for property management in the areas named in the subject. 

I'm looking for PMs that are not highly restrictive with contract on dates and fees. 

Restrictive meaning, things like charging a fee whether they place a tenant or not and want to be paid if contract is terminated for the remainder of the lease although they are not managing. Or things like renewal fees or termination fees excess of what I mentioned on tenant leasing.

Providing gap funding can be a good way to lose All of your investment. 

Lack of funds.....

Why do you think the first mtg lender didn’t lend the additional money????

If I understand you correctly, someone borrowed money on a property and they are looking for additional funding?

First thing to do is run a title report (protitleusa) and make sure any money you lend you understand what position it is in. I know of many lenders who do not record the funds they lend and have gotten hosed in the past. If it is truly in the second position then you really need to have a good relationship with the individual and also know the value of the property 

 Hi Chris 

That was a quick reply thanks.

It's moreso an investor purchasing the acquisition via another investors funds (JV) and the gap comes into play with another investor to fund the rehab. Since there are now 2 investors, one for acquisition and the other to fill the gap for rehab, I wanted to know what structure is in place for the investor providing the gap funding.

What you described seems to be the answer needed for the gap funding portion. Making sure equity exists but recording what? The note as it’s going to sit 2nd position of the acquisition funds?

Hi -

I'm looking for structure from those who have done this - provided (gap fund) funds for an investment (REO) where the initial funds were supplied by another investor. As the person supplying the "gap", so to speak, it seems to be typical that 2nd pos is where the gap funder sits. I don't think both can be 1st pos.

How have others (you) structured this in terms of security? Meaning, it's lending money (gap) and being in a 2nd pos so how can one determine if it's a good viable position to be in. What secures the 2nd? Not sure how else to word it or what else to ask.

I've done 1st before and was 1st and only on deed but as 2nds go, not sure what is being secured or secures the money being lent. Also, a twist is that the money will be from a SDIRA, for whom I have already put in an email to for finding out their requirements on 2nds, if any.

Thank you

I bought a product called vamoose (? It’s been a while) I bought from amazon and it worked for me. It’s a spray and I used it to wipe down the base boards, blinds, windows, receptacles and doors. I also had an ozone treatment 4 times from one company. I paid once but since the company also continued to smell the smoke, they did the other three for free. It still didn’t do anything and I resulted in further research that lead me to the vamoose.
