As you stated, it’s about limiting your risk for asset protection purposes.

Some argue that it gives you more liability protection, but I think the benefits are overblown.

They will make sure the deal gets done while your best interest are protected.

You just cannot discriminate against somebody based on a protected class.

I'm sure you can understand this is to protect your mothers belongings and make sure the Executor has access to the belongings to distribute to the rightful heirs or if need be to sell them off to cover debts such as past due rent. 

Thanks Solomon & I sure hope you're right :-)  I think people certainly need protection and options from near "price-gouging"  pertaining to home rentals especially, but your point is so true (that solid landlords can't be replaced) and I hope the gov't keeps us in mind when they're faced with potential, new decisions - Thanks for your reply!  

@Robert Palladino you would lose any protections that the LLC provides by co-mingling funds.

Now they send me this: Fundrise Advisors, in our capacity as Manager of the eREITs and eFunds, has determined that it is necessary at this time to suspend the processing and fulfillment of redemption requests.While under normal market conditions, we seek to provide investors with the ability to redeem their investments on a regular basis, during times of financial crisis or extreme uncertainty, it is absolutely critical that we suspend redemptions in order to protect the interests of all our investors.As Manager, we have an obligation to make decisions based upon what is best for the entire Fundrise investor community and must always put the priorities of the whole above any one individual.Fundamentally, Fundrise investors own real property, which is simply not liquid.

.- My assets would be more protected because my house would now be under an LLC.

Yeah it could be, and with protection laws set in place someone could move in and not pay you and you're stuck.
