Would I use the LLC to seek lending or should I do it as a private individual?

Not looking for typical hard money lenders but individuals with capital that I can work together with on buy and hold deals.

Im not trying to scare you or anything like that, I have over 50 tenants occupying a commercial building and thank god that most are paying, but some HAVE stopped paying and i have sought legal aid by an attorney which I paid over $3000 for eviction and between his fees and my loss of rental income Im over $18k in the hole.

@Ryan Phelps, my apologies, I forgot there is no sarcasm font on the internet....yet.A true private lender is an individual who is lending money. 

My community was non-warrantable because is a small complex (only 11 units) and one individual owned a few of the units and many others were not used as primary residences. 

You are speaking of broad categories, when the fact is that individual deals are what matters, not categories of investment.

Personally I wouldn’t put individual laundry in each unit unless it was targeting higher class tenants.

@Darion Fletcher welcome, lots of experienced individuals with a wealth of knowledge here.

@Jason Holloway a lot of high net worth individuals are doing planning now since the $11M exemption is only in place till 2025 and then reduces to $5M.

Maybe a private individual would do it if the deal was good enough and/or the borrower had a good enough track record.
