Hi John,As you mentioned, refinancing to acquire more properties is a great way to increase your return on equity. 

Keep it simple.With real estate it almost never makes sense to acquire LLC units over acquiring the assets.When you acquire LLC units, you are also acquiring any unlisted liabilities of that LLC - say someone had a trip and fall 3 weeks before you bought it, and then they sue the LLC a week after you close on the purchase... now it's your problem. 

If you've already got Airbnb rentals, make your cash while you can then acquire long-term cash flowing rentals.Finally, ideal Airbnb markets are not ideal Long-term rental markets. 

I'm looking to invest in my first property in Denver and would like to acquire a small multi-family (3-4 units), live in one of the units and rent out the others.

Being on title protects the seller from the buyer defaulting - it seems this is an alternative to "officially" putting them in a 2nd position)-- Title company sends seller the $350K they require-- Title company sends buyer back $650K (which they can use to pay off their transactional lender if they used one)So now the seller is happy bc they got the $350K they needed, the buyer is happy bc they acquired a property for zero dollars out-of-pocket, and from what I understand the 1st position lender is happy bc due the LLC arrangement the seller finance component is not technically considered a second lien on the property.

At this point I have enough saved up for a down payment and I am starting the process of acquiring financing through the investor-friendly lender tool on BP.
