Hey Bigger Pockets Family, I've been doing a lot of research on opening up a Series LLC for my retail properties..

You can move the property into an LLC to shield your identity.Bad, angry, violent tenants threaten landlords.

Most banks tell me i need to purchase the property under my name and not under a LLC was wondering if i opened a series LLC how can i incorporate it from liability protection and taxes?

Look up post    "Self Storage- Setting up LLC";  Also "Self Storage- LLC operating agreement.use the Search magnifying glass above.

I have excellent credit (around 780 - 810), but would still need to stay away from Personal Guarantee on these LLC owned properties. 

So steps are :Create promissory note plus deed of trust(if needed)Buy property cash (using all parties funds)Renovate propertyRent UnitsRefinance property under a new loan (with your name)Pay back partnerChange Title to a holding LLC or yourself (Could be done earlier)That's it.

Hey BP, this may be a dumb question, but can my LLC take out a HELOC on a property that is under my personal name?

Looking for a little help with proper business formation, LLC structure, and liability coverage etc.Thank you for the help!

The basics are I would rent a number of units from the syndication LLC, would be responsible for management and expenses (ie utilities), and then I would keep a portion of the profit (basically my upside for managing the mid term rental units) and the other portion of the profit would go to the syndication LLC which now gets over market rent.
