Yes, you could get a loan and transfer it and ye it is possible they will make you refinance it.This subject has been extensively covered, might do a little searching.You'll find that instead of the LLC BS, good management is the first line of defense, then insurance, if you master these two aspects chances of getting sued will be very slim and in the event you are, you can laugh it off and go to sleep that night.You open an LLC for business reasons not as an asset protection ploy as it is a very poor method.
