The tradeoff on the joint financing is going to be the (refi) costs associated w any transfer of ownership, HOWEVER transferring title to the LLC is unlikely to trigger due on sale (b/c it sounds like most banks simply aren't monitoring and/or enforcing due on sale in these instances) which would make the ownership (sans the actual mortgage note) more easily transferable than exiting your position as an individual owner?

A Beneficial Owner is an individual who either directly or indirectly owns or controls a company.

I tried reasoning with that individual as well but similar to you, seems adamant this strategy works.
