My understanding is that unless the borrower is pledging/securing your loan with particular and specified assets in a security agreement, you would be a unsecured creditor as far as the personal assets go, not much different than credit card debt.

The vast majority of lawsuits against Landlords are for wrongful eviction, security deposit disputes, and Fair Housing Violations.

The lender will be asked to lend with the property as security and both LLCs or individuals guaranteeing the loan.

I was very impressed with their security, they were so strict.
