Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Hyun Supul, without diving too far into this, and the devil is always in the details, when I see this, I can't help but assume this whole offering is a way to for them to raise pref equity for their own deals, but wait, that won't look too good, so let's layer in some private credit, too.It says it will lend money AND invest pref equity into MF deals owned by Disrupt and Open Door Capital.Questions to ask: what allocation is going to loans versus pref equity in their own deals?  

But ultimately, any cost to the syndicator is ultimately a cost to the deal, which means that at the end of the day it costs the investor.Investors that can find quality sponsors, and do proper due diligence on them, can save an entire layer of cost by investing directly with those carefully selected sponsors versus investing through crowdfunding portals.Good luck!

Finding the leak, obviously, is vital to knowing the fix.

This structure simplifies management, centralizes ownership, and provides an extra layer of liability protection.Tax-wise, the state where each property is located will still require income tax reporting and LLC fees.

Adding in the layer of not being on the loan but holding title just sounds like it will eventually lead to problems like OP experienced.

As I understood that allowed me to have an extra layer of liability protection. 

So that's another layer between you and getting your money back and/or paid.  

A second layer of protection is that these trusts need to be litigated in the country the trust is set up in.

But you fail to properly (and hospitably ) introduce yourself and you have an obsession for privacy and self protection with multiple layers of LLCs and twisted ownership, why would you expose yourself to lawsuits to simply be mean?

I also like to use incidental insurance as an additional layer such as Waivo to cover items.
