  • you will find lenders reluctant to let you take title in the name of the corp.

  • even if your lender lets you take title in the name of the corp., the lender will likely want your name on the note, and use your credit rating.

Buying a house thru a corporation. Any advantages? - Posted by Bruce

I’m looking at buying a personal residence and will have
to be creative in my approach to financing. I incorporated
my business as a Delaware corporation about 2 years ago.
If I buy as a corporation, are there any techniques that can be employed which might make it easier or allow me to
be more creative than if I were buying in my own name?

I don’t have good personal credit, so we established most of the corporation’s credit by using my partner’s credit which is very good.

Any thoughts, ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.
