After talking to 5-6 different lenders, this is the one that was pitched to me the most favorably.

You can work around this issue through the introduction of a Land Trust, meaning you can have favorable financing and still remain protected under the LLC - it just takes a bit more work to set up.

@Robert Kirkley lots of ways to use cash back credit cards in your favor.

Land trusts can also offer you more privacy and aid in setting up favorable financing in your personal name, so there are a few different reasons investors may lean toward using a land trust.Hope this helps clarify a bit.

Paid his co-worker for the favor from what I'm told.

Do yourself a favor and let the attorney step in...and then figure out what course to take if in fact there is an issue.  

However do it as a Nomad House hack.Nomad - This is where you sequentially buy properties as an owner occupant with the favorable owner occupant financing.

Now if the property is distressed by condition or by management that can work in your favor.

The last one negotiated in such favor of the tenant that we were loosing money while all long they were going bankrupt.

The PM would rationally favor the buyer, assuming they are continuing as a client.
