Would a HELOC or home equity loan on my personal home be a good idea to fund this?  

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.

.: I would go HELOC for sure that would be best as others were saying the lower cost for the money changes between paying a higher rate for a personal line and typically personal lines they want a higher monthly charge as well independent from the interest rate.  

If one is transferring property title from personal name, a Grant/Warranty Deed would be drafted/recorded to transfer title. 

It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.

@Reyna AyalaI personally feel this is overkill.

Quote from @Dominic Mazzarella: Quote from @James Wise: TikTok is supposed to be shut down in the U.S on 1.19.2025 unless the Supreme Court blocks or delays the U.S. ban per Trump's request.I won't pretend to have any idea how the inner workings of the data collection between China and the USA effect the world, but on a personally business not, I like it.

If you fail to follow the rules, you may open your personal assets to a lawsuit.

I'm also starting off my own personal investment property journey with my husband. 

You’re going to be personally sued no matter the cause of the loss.
