HML asking to change operating agreement

Scott Winter

Posted

I have LLC with 1/3 ownership between partners. I think we've asked if we can bypass credit being pulled on all partners. HML said an alternative is to change operating agreement to show >80% equity by primary borrower.

To me, running credit on all the partners is the obvious solution before changing the operating agreement. Now I’m curious though, is running credit and background on all partners, even if they aren’t bringing money to the deal a common practice with HMLs?

Any insight would be appreciated.

“So Bob will be the only one signing. So we need to adjust the operation agreement to reflect only listing as the majority share.

Bob please send us the op agreement reflecting you are majority share 80% or more. So we do not need to run credit and back ground for everyone else.”

We have resolutions authorizing Bob as a signer.

We have provided entities and tax IDs for companies holding the interest of our shared LLC. The lender has SSN of Bob, the primary signer, who is bringing money for the deal.
