To a point made by another person who commented, you may be able to have a lender do a 'one-off' portfolio loan at a 95% LTV if they trust you enough . good luck.

Freddie Mac only offers financing for single properties they do not offer 'Portfolio loans" meaning bundle them all into one loan.

Reason being HML's are typically short term loans that are interest only.

This is advantageous bc later you have a third party loan (not your personal money) so seasoning period is 90 days to DSCR out. 

I was just thinking today there was all this excitement about VA loan assumptions there for a while when interest rates started going up. 

Your personal history with GSE's is notified across all GSE loans, they communicate.

The Note/Mortgage for each loan states the dollar amount invested & the % of the total loan by name, for each investor. 

If there is a due on sale clause in the loan doc then it doesn’t matter what the loan officer told you verbally.I’m not an attorney, but from my understanding of the loan is still in your name personally a good litigator can pierce the veil and your LLC protection wouldn’t amount to much.

Quote from @Irina Badal: I heard for anonymity purpose it’s advisable to set up a personal residence trust.

I believe Alexandria city allows it but portions of Fairfax county do not allow it. i would go option 1 personally.
