Can my LLC borrow funds to finance a real estate purchase?
Yes, but only with the use of a non-recourse promissory note issued by a lending institution or by the seller of the property. The non-recourse promissory note cannot be personally guaranteed, and the lending institution can only look to the property securing the note as collateral. Important: Debt-financed property may generate Unrelated Business Taxable Income (“UBTI”), and any taxes due must be paid by the account. For more information regarding UBTI, please consult your tax advisor.
