I was watching Brandon video the other day about his great deal of 90K for 4 -plex and J Scott is lender.

Hi All,I watched Al Aiello's video on LLC and he suggested forming a 2nd LLC as a lender in order to facilitate equity stripping for the LLC that holds the real estate.I understand the logic behind this but I don't know how it is done in reality without involving actual cash.Can someone help me understand how this is done?
