Re: Transferring my personal property to my LLC
As others stated, a Deed is the way to transfer ownership. If you have a mortgage and do not get the approval of the lender they can call the mortgage and demand payment in full or start foreclosure.
Re: Transferring my personal property to my LLC
If you own the condo free and clear, your lawyer may advise you to sell it to the LLC or designate it as capital for the LLC. If there is a mortgage on the condo and not much equity, it is unlikely that your lender will permit you to do that unless you refinance the loan and offer a personal guarantee at least for some time. Either way you should consult your lawyer for assistance.
