I can not say I know the answer to this, but I think property owned
in trust may be a bit different. AS far as a corp or an LLC, I
agree, what is the difference, as long as there is someone who is
signing personally for the note...I will be intersted to hear
others. I am a mortgage person, but I am still looking to crack the
nut of closing in Land trusts and all that intersting, private
stuff. Anyone ?
