@Kenneth LaVoieWhy not figure what your payments would be with the 30 yr financing and then work backwards to figure what your LTV would have to be with your current financing and then use that as a target point to pay down to and then refinance...This way you keep your liability protection, get the same payments as the 30 yr financing and are better protected against a down turn of the market due to the larger equity cushion.Example 100k note with 30 yr 4% = $477.42, but you could use a 20 yr note at 6% in the LLC and carry $66,638 mortgage to get that same payment $477.42.
