Will a small local bank react differently than the mega-banks if you transfer the deed to an LLC?

A traditional closing only charges for the policy if title transfers, not for the preliminary title check.

This seems simpler than transferring title again, and will cause fewer issues if the is reselling to a financed end user later.

E.G. on assignments COGS would be (net cost of earnest money funds, possible fee(s) to third parties during inspection period, cost to record memorandum of contract if necessary)On simultaneous closes possible COGS would be the same as assignments with the addition of closing costs/transfer taxes.What about when earnest money is put up, inspection fails and escrow funds are returned…is that still recorded to COGS?

Transfer of ownership fees, application fees, LLC fees, mowing and snow removal fees.
