If you have used up most of your credit limits, your score skews downward.

I am making two assumptions here (1 - the borrower is not bankable and 2 - they are stretching to make the payment work) which means the investor is going to want a much higher yield than 6 or 8%, and the 30 year term will limit your potential buyers.

Will depend on several factors like the type of property, type of tenants, your risk tolerance, other assets you own, your estate planning, laws where the property is located, etc.Any lawsuits would be limited to the assets of the LLC and not your personal assets (assuming you run the LLC appropriately and the corporate veil is not pierced).
