It really depends on the nature of your debt and how it is allocated ( I'm assuming you have no assets to garnish).

It used to be that DSCR loans could only be done in the name of an entity, but later they started, allowing them to natural persons provided they could show that it was for investment purposes and that they owned a property.

It is human nature to want to try to tuck that away and hope it doesn't get noticed, but UWs are pretty smart and you definitely don't want to be 3-4 weeks into something and get denied at the last second.Happy to connect and talk a little moreGood luck! 

I’m in an area with very few natural disasters and my 8 unit runs about $5,000 annually.

During that time, I have completely renovated the property and have added ~$100,000 in forced appreciation, while the property has naturally appreciated ~$75,000 (based on recent, nearby sales). 

We have an existing LLC, but it's for a business of a completely different nature and purpose.

Obviously, the passive nature, but you can find an operating partner and you wouldn't need to give up control.
