I just bought my first rental and am in the process of doing this. You create the LLC and just go to a title company and get the title transferred from you to the LLC. mortgage will still be in your name.

If you have a loan on the house as I do you are not technically supposed to do this and if the lender finds out you could possibly be forced to pay the entire loan off. I am also told if the lender does find out they will likely just send you a mean letter and you can hurry back to the title office and transfer back to yourself.

This is what I know about that

Or you just buy it in the name of the LLC in the first place. That way the mortgage and the title are in the LLC.

I would def recommend 1 LLC for your properties. I think having one for each property is overkill personally.

Your commercial lender at your bank should be able to help you easily convert them from your name to your LLC.
