By mixing funds you open yourself to liability by someone being able to pierce the corporate veil by saying there is no difference between you and your business because they both are using the same funds.However, if you are investing in your own name then a personal account would be best, though it should still be separate than your personal spending account.You didn't ask, but investing in your personal name opens you up for better financing, but more risk due to personal liability, while investing in an LLC or entity has less risk but you are forced to use less attractive commercial financing.

The tax advisor is half right.If all an investor does is whip a property into an LLC, then an attorney could pierce the corporate veil and go after the investors.On the other hand, if the partners in the LLC have a strong operating agreement, keep minutes and don't mingle personal funds with the LLC's funds, then an attorney or court is going to be hard pressed to go after the partner's assets.The moral of the story, run your real estate investment LLC as professional business.
