Personally, I don't sell property just because I'm in a difficult situation.

But when I was doing these refinances, they told me the loans would have to be in my personal name, because the lenders said it's more difficult to recoup money from an LLC and not an individual.

We have been researching all the buzzy markets like #Boise, #Austin, #Nashville, #Tampa, #Houston...but the more I read on Biggerpockets, the more it seems these markets are tapped out and too difficult to find deals (even read a post from someone in Nashville saying it is 7-8 years too late!).

Buy smart, buy right and you'll be fine.Without 2 years of taxes for your self-employment, you're going to find it very difficult to get a traditional loan.
