Usually we see indirect impact on rate when writing in an LLC vs. personal name.

If banks were hesitant, did you personally guarantee the loan and then document a loan to your LLC with a promissory note?

That's one of a 5 point, personal "touch" system from booking to departure.That is an interesting idea. 

I agree that I wouldn't want to "clog" my personal DTI and wait 2 months if private lending is comparable in terms.  

If doing in-person, tenants must be given notice before the inspection (24/48 hours, depending on state laws).Who conducts the inspections and/or how are they conducted?

There is an example I have from my personal experience.

Hey Zeni,We’ve seen this setup a lot with house hacks, and the tax treatment depends on how much of the property is personal use vs. rental use.

With the rise of AI, we have a huge advantage over the competition.And not so much with the USE of AI, but in not using it.Handwritten letters are doing better than AI phone calls.In person appointments at the house have a higher closing ratiothan closing over the phone.There's many investors I know all over the country that are going back backto the basics of knowing belly button to belly button will be the mostpowerful tool we have in negotiating a deal, and really building a relationship.We won't close every seller we meet, but think of how many more can be closedbecause we set the appointment, met the seller in person, and built truststronger than anyone else.Same with content.

Hopefully this person would do a better job than I do and would also save me the time of going through the exercise each time I am considering a refi or new purchase.Thanks!
