Can I transfer Title back to personal name (was in LLC) for Refi?

I can get a better rate, better term, and more cash out if I use a residential loan product. But I transferred them into my LLC for liability purposes. Can I now transfer them back into my name so that I can use a residential product? I have found commercial lenders who will refinance the properties, however the terms aren't as favorable and the cash out is 65% of what I figure I could get from a refinance with a residential loan product.

    Speaking in general terms here: yes. I've done this in Maryland where I was the sole member of the LLC. I had to cancel my LLC and did a quit claim deed to transfer the property. This was done at closing for the loan. Doing it this way did not trigger any sort of tax consequence. I strongly suggest you call your title company to discuss as I'm sure they'll be able to tell you for certain for the area you live in.

    Yes! You will do a quitclaim deed to your name and back again at closing. It’s a normal practice for the lenders that know. How much are you looking to cash out?
