Paying off LLC Funds Obtained from Personal Sources

J Czar
Posted

I have a question about funding a single-member LLC and paying it back. I have read several of the posts here, but I have not been able to figure out exactly what to do. I am buying a property, and I going to fund it with a cash-out refinance from an investment property and a cash-out refinance from my primary residence. I understand I deposit the money into the LLC as an owner contribution. How do I set up the monthly payments from the LLC to pay the installments while being able to deduct the interest as a tax expense?

For example, investment A has a $200k loan and my primary has a $200k loan. I fund the LLC for investment B with $200k, $100k from each property. How does the LLC pay me back so I can pay the two loans while having the LLC recognize that some of the monthly payments are for interest?

In theory, the mortgage should be in the LLC's name and the LLC would report the income and expenses it has.

Since this is a single member LLC, it will be treated as a disregarded entity unless you elect to be taxed as a corporation.
