There's always some rule that gets in the way (or makes it downright impossible) when it's been less than six months since your last mortgage on a given property and you want to refi; in this case it'll be that the lender on the refi will use the lesser of purchase price or appraised value, effectively meaning equity gains through home improvement will be disregarded.

Just because a tenant pays on time and keeps the place nice doesn’t necessarily mean they’re a good tenant...but...those 2 things are key to being a good tenant and it’s hard to just disregard.

If you are the sole member, it is a disregarded entity for tax purposes.

This ignores appreciation which is a phantom return until sale so I disregard that. 

Technically, mine is a single-member LLC, therefore the IRS considers it a "disregarded entity" and this step is superfluous at this point.- I then contacted the registered agent of my choosing and gave them the LLC information and EIN.- I then contacted my bank and created a business account in the name of the LLC with the EIN and transferred funds into that account.- Now, I can buy real estate (actually, I could have done this all along), but due to the "disregarded entity" status of my single-member LLC, the loans will be issued to in my personal name based on my  personal credit score and my personal debt-to-income ratio, etc, in part because my company has no credit score of its own yet, and won't for years to come.At some point, you can quit-claim the property into your business' name, but be aware that most mortgages have a due-on-sale clause so that by making that "sale" (effectively selling the property to yourself) your bank may require payment in full.  

@Alfred Litton, assuming your LLC is disregarded for tax purposes (which most are) then you have to pay the taxes regardless of whether you pull the money out or not.

I don't want to disregard my agent altogether, but I know he's busy.

Disregard if you're already doing this :-).Best,Kurt 

Then there is the question of if you are currently a disregarded entity or not... lots for you to think about, and maybe run by a competent financial or tax person. 

The LLC is just my wife and I as a disregarded entity, in Texas.
