Hey "BP", my wife and I are looking for a real estate attorney around the Orting Washington area (Pierce County).

@Thomas Kwan  While I have never come across a 401k being pierced since it falls under the trust umbrella for lawsuits brought against the plan assets, some will invest the solo 401k funds in an LLC thinking that they will get an extra layer of protection. 

You want to make sure it's hard for anyone to "pierce the corporate veil" so if anything happens at the property and someone wants to sue the owners, they can only reach the LLC and not your personal assets. 

I own investment properties and work in Pierce county/Tacoma so let me know if you want to chat sometime.

ThanksWith the typical disclaimer of check with a qualified attorney, a personal guarantee does not pierce the veil because it is between you (your company) and the lender.

In my over two decades as an investor, I have had an attorney try to "pierce the corporate veil" one time. 

Yes, a US court can pierce the corporate veil of the LLC and issue a judgement and come after your assets.

If you are using those for asset protection then you are making it quite easy to pierce the corporate veil.  

While the LLC can be used to insulate any assets that you have in other entities or that you hold personally, its not a guarantee that a sharp attorney couldn't pierce the corporate veil and get outside your LLC to other assets, so a solid foundation of insurance is critical.Not to complicate things any further, but something you need to be aware of and that is how you hold the property is of great importance.
