LLC Financing for Canadian Investors
Close US investment property mortgages directly in your LLC for liability protection and clean portfolio management. Unlike Canada where investment properties are typically held in personal name, the US LLC structure creates a legal wall between your investment assets and your personal wealth. We handle the entire process from Canada — LLC formation in your chosen state, EIN application with the IRS, registered agent setup, operating agreement drafting, US bank account referrals for your entity, and DSCR loan financing that closes in the LLC name.

Protect Your Assets with LLC Ownership
In Canada, investment properties are held in personal name. In the US, serious investors use LLCs for liability protection, asset separation, and professional portfolio management. DSCR loans make entity financing easy.
Liability Protection
An LLC creates a legal wall between your US investment properties and your personal assets in Canada. Lawsuits, claims, and liabilities stay contained within the LLC entity, meaning your Canadian home, savings, and other assets cannot be reached.
Close in Entity Name
DSCR loans close directly in your LLC's name — the LLC is the borrower, the property owner, and the entity on the title. This eliminates the need for personal guarantees on the property itself, and keeps your personal name off public property records.
Asset Separation
Keep each property or market in a separate LLC to isolate risk across your portfolio. If one property faces legal issues, your other investments are protected behind separate entity walls.
Canadian-Owned LLCs Welcome
Our lenders are experienced with foreign-owned LLCs and understand the unique documentation requirements for Canadian members. Canadian ownership does not prevent you from accessing the same DSCR loan products, rates, and terms available to US investors.
Full Formation Support
We connect you with cross-border legal partners who handle LLC formation, EIN application, registered agent setup, and operating agreement drafting — all completed remotely from Canada.
US Bank Account Setup
Your LLC needs a US bank account for receiving rent, paying the mortgage, covering property expenses, and managing cash flow. We provide referrals to banks experienced with foreign-owned entities.
