You can take courses offered by the CCIM Institute even if aren't a real estate broker and have no interest in the CCIM designation.

You need to provide them with the LLC information and the trust documentation when opening an account.I have opened bank accounts for the trust and for LLCs owned by the trust at multiple institutions, including one of the four major US banks, local banks, local credit unions, online banks, multiple major brokerage houses, etc.

A properly structured syndicated offering will be an LLC as is, therefore, from an asset protection standpoint, there is very little point to forming an LLC just to participate on the LP side.Now, if you are trying to pull partnership money and charge the partnership a management fee, which sort of makes you a feeder fund into the syndication, then there are a whole host of questions for an attorney. 

As things moved slower and maybe missed out on some good tenants not wanting to participate in that process.

I remember the reports of the first cases coming out from Wuhan in December of 2019 ,and obviously since everyone knows there are only 4 comprehensive bio safety level four laboratories on the planet, Moscow, Paris, Fort Detrick-Maryland and of course Wuhan Institute of Virology, and given that there are over 100,000 small town with wet meat markets throughout China, one doesn't even have to ask the question "what are the odds?"

To date, I have many rentals in my own name (with a liability umbrella policy) as many financial institutions are leery of lending to an LLC but now that I am doing more DSCR, I have created a couple of LLCs as the lender only wants to lend to an entity, not individual. 

Banks like Wells will open one for the master llc but not the cells, so that won't work.I know the larger institutions typically shy away but I'm sure there are others in town willing to do it.
