I need solid income. Doesn't have to be monthly but at least quarterly. And I need to know approx what's coming in.

is it possible to refinance a 4 unit investment property, keeping the property in an LLC? it seems like all lenders want it on a personal name?
Surely at a hard money lender.
Also, what about with a personal guarantee?
Spoke to one of the million and one brokers out there?

Don't need to go to hard money. it costs a little more, and you'll probably have to have recourse. And you're a little more limited in lenders.
speak to a broker who does residential.

spoke to several brokers and all are telling me that i need to take it out of the LLC for the refinance. how do people with a lot of investment properties take out loans at regular rates?

When it's 5+units it's a commercial loan and not a problem. 1-4 is the issue.
Many people move it out temporarily. But that's not always an option.
 there are lenders who will do it.

will commercial loans have much higher rates?
they always say they can pull the loan if you put it back in the LLC, does that ever happen?
any recommendations of lenders who do?

It is most definitely possible to do a commercial refi for a handful of properties under an LLC. not sure if 4 is too little, but definitely 10 residential is done

Of course. You can't just transfer ownership of properties that are mortgaged

I have a client about to offload a small (8 properties, one or two are 2-units) portfolio in Baltimore.  Cash flowing, mostly government-subsidized tenants.  High cap.

PM me an email address and I can provide the info when I get it sometime next week.  Probably a little higher than 500 though.

There are banks that will let you put it back in the LLC.
Try local banks, they can give you a loan to the LLC. Brokers usually only deal with the national banks.

For a single family rental property, does it make sense to move it under an LLC or is it not worth it and should just be kept under my name?

Depends if you want to protect your animonity to tenant or not. If you have a PO Boxor business , you can use that on the tax record whixh will make it more difficutl for trantas to figure out where you live.
For liabilty issues, just make sure to have adequate insurance.

Animosity with tenants ::) ;D... A.N.O.N.I.M.I.T.Y.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

For a single family, self managed property, anonymity isn't really an option (or concern). Sounds like no real benefit to LLC if properly insured.
