I am trying to obtain financing for the down payment so that I can keep cash on hand for my fix and flips.

Hi River, yes it will, I rehab and flip before never refi and kept.I' will be there tomorrow, starting to get a team together 🙌 

I had issues with linking a bank account to their "Stessa Bank account".

I have no experience there, but I am sure finding the right person to trust for a long time would be an issue here.

Without that you can be sued personally for any issue within it on your str.Its much harder for people to pierce the corporate vail and sue you personally if your property is owned and managed in a LLC .Financing is one of the only drawbacks as it is a commercial process and banks usually like to see 3 years of a decent tax return.We have 19 properties and all are in an LLC and in fact we only hold 2-4 properties in each LLC (all are owned by one parent company and done in one flow through parent company)to even further shield the liability that may/can occur on a property.There is no doubt you are exposed to higher risk on many fronts if an investment property is held personally.

I had this happen to me but with a tenant who was not following the rules of the lease.I had records of all issues, rules broken and other details.

You're the one who pays, so you're the one who decides how much to pay.I've had similar issues in the past with the people who do work for me.  

@Jay Hinrichs care to comment.ONLY REASON I would run title is if I thought there was an access issue ( land locked) etc.

I'd select one or two that have the best opportunity for appreciation and rent them for 12-18 months to alleviate the cash flow issue.
