Hi, my husband and I are new to real estate investing and have a property we are renting out to tenants. We recently put the house under an LLC but are not sure if the lease should reflect the LLC as the landlord or k...

If you close with a conventional loan, it will need to be in your personal name.

A relative who does long-distance real estate investing told me that I have to sign the final loan document and the transfer of ownership document in person.

People like to rent from a person not a 'brand', it's more personal.

It would just need to be a situation where they have great contact with the person doing that managing of the project (I.e. have known the person for years, great reputation, person has experience in flipping etc.).

If there is a due on sale clause in the loan doc then it doesn’t matter what the loan officer told you verbally.I’m not an attorney, but from my understanding of the loan is still in your name personally a good litigator can pierce the veil and your LLC protection wouldn’t amount to much.

Therefore, it is advisable for the client to consult with their CPA to receive personalized guidance tailored to their unique financial situation.

The interest rate on a HELOC or Heloan may be better than the personal loan. 

I 100% agree with the intent aspect and that is an important premise, but the fact is in this particular situation intent for it to be personal use has been confirmed (by way of a public post).

I warn people over and over and over to know what they are buying and to go personally see what they are buying.
