Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Real Estate & LLC Question Please: 1. I want to purchase an expensive home and invite people globally to join me. 2. I want to borrow the funds from them and I am NOT offering an interest rate and I am NOT promising them any ROI (so it's not classified as an investment or security with the SEC). 3. I am offering to manage the home and let then use it also. 4. Because the home is expensive and the loans are large, I want to use an LLC to make everything legal and legitimate, reduce liability, allow any pass-throughs on expenses, establish guidelines via the Operating Agreement etc. 5 The LLC would be set up as "manager managed" with me as manager and the people I'm borrowing from would be set up as silent partners with non-voting memberships. 6. After 10 years, I would sell the home and pay back the lenders according to the Operating Agreement. Questions Please: 1. Is that legal? 2. Do I have any securities problems? 3. Should I include the LLC or just do the loans or is there a better way to set it up? 4. Any other feedback is welcome. Please Note: if you're a licensed real estate Attorney in CA and you're interested in this type of arrangement, I would be open to including you and/or hiring you contingent upon negotiations and a NDNC. Feel free to e-mail me with any questions. Thank-you for your time and interest. Mr Bowen San Diego CA [email protected]
