There are very few lenders that will allow you to close in a personal name in FL.

Liability Protection: An LLC provides legal separation between your personal and rental property assets, which can protect personal assets if a lawsuit arises.

Unless you revise your plan and ensure that your personal use is under 10% of the rental use.

Investors that will go say 250 to 1 mil or more once you prove your experience are far easier to deal with and the only ones I personally interact with.

Remember that for most owners, their business is very personal to them.

If you close with a conventional loan, it will need to be in your personal name.

It would just need to be a situation where they have great contact with the person doing that managing of the project (I.e. have known the person for years, great reputation, person has experience in flipping etc.).

what kind of investment was/is this  a little more detail may protect others if you think this person is a financial predator.  

@Ryan WasherHey everyone, I'd be interested in attending an in-person or virtual meet up also.

Quote from @John Friendas Quote from @Patrick Roberts: If you are on the note or personally guarantee the debt, then it will affect the liability side of DTI, regardless of whether the lender reports the loan on your personal credit.
