LLC or no LLC for triplex purchase amongst 5 member partnership?
Four friends and I want to begin our multifamily investing journey together and are interested in purchasing a triplex for our first deal. Our initial thoughts is to create an LLC for the purchase. But in terms of obtaining financing, can our LLC (with all five of us as members of the LLC) obtain residential financing (four units or less) or does the mortgage have to be under an individual or individuals? Researching online didn't yield the answer. Just trying to get a sense for what is the best way to structure our 5 member partnership, from a practical, legal, and financing perspective. Thanks BP!
