We no issues closing in an LLC, as a matter of fact most of my lenders will prefer it (assuming it is not your primary residence)Assuming it is not your primary residence, the easiest way to do this deal would be through a DSCR Loans.A DSCR Loan will use current rents or market rents if the property is vacant and personal tax return from you would NOT be required.It also referred to as a No Ratio Loan because your personal Debt To Income is not important.What is important is that the property can pay for itself.If we keep the LTV Low the rate for this loan can be better than a conventional loan.If you ARE Living in the property and you want to keep it... it would mostly depend on how motivated you are and how willing you'd be to "postpone gratification"The best bet is still a DSCR Loan.. which means you moving and renting the property out.We can bring in Asset Based Financing that can help with cash down (if you need it) or to pay cash for another property for you to reside in.Once you're moved out we can do the DSCR Loan at a 70% - 80% LTV or we can calculate a comfortable cash flow number.For example, max cash out that will give you $500 cashflow after a full PITI payment.Let's discuss more!

To some it seems like a no brainer if the interest is higher on the loan than the 401(k) interest but consider this…the loan interest can be written off.  

Kevin, if you live in or near Detroit, it's a no-brainer to invest here IMO.I started buying rentals in the city about 3 years ago and it's been the best financial decision I've ever made.

Seems like a no brainer. 

Sounds high to me unless you are able to really make this unique.I realize I made of lot of back of the napkin assumptions above, but it sounds like a no go to me.Yep, you are on point with this.  

On the other hand, flipping is considered a trader business and taxed at one of the highest rates.I have a feeling this is a no-brainer decision when you factor that in. 

Typically you want the debt with the property and putting that debt on your primary is generally a no-no unless its short term.If I were you I'd pull out 70% equity from the rental property, go find another house under market value to fix up and force appreciation.
