They are used more in non arm lengths transfer situations. 

Can anyone share a little more information on transferring the ownership of property in your name to an LLC or any other entity for that matter?

Should we buy it under our LLC or under our name and then transfer it to our LLC after refinance?

However, we also see inventory down as many sellers choose to wait until after the first of the year, resulting in less seller competition. many sellers choose to wait because coordinating showings and getting a home ready for market during this time of year can be overwhelming to some. 

BUY every time you transfer.

I was wondering, can I make a PLLC now and transfer that money to the PLLC retroactively?

But yes when you transfer the deed of the property into the LLC you will need to change your insurance policy accordingly. 

If your return is pretty basic (i.e. no real estate), I'd recommend DIY and then once you buy the property you can easily transfer to a CPA in the first year of your real estate. 

And get automatic transfer orders set up with the utility companies so nothing gets cut off.

In this case, how can we dissolve the LLC and transfer ownership to the two members (my in-law and I)?
