Hi My name is FaTina and I’m a new wholesaler.

Most people I hear will buy in their name then deed it over to the LLC.

Just wanted to get my name out there!

Set everything up in your name and keep it that way, then use his money.

If you put it in an LLC name you may find some tax benefits but you will need to then set up a landlord policy (more expensive than a primary homeowners policy) for the building then purchase a Renters Insurance policy for your self to cover your property and personal liability.

My name is RIch Loniewski, I am located in central New Jersey and am new to real estate investing.
