I made the decision earlier - 2002 actually, to acknowledge fractional interests as a security and become regulation compliant.  

So just be careful with that and ensure your deal is frank dodd compliant.

There is no comp for a home with a non-compliant septic system, for example.  

Ask the seller if the property is ADA compliant, has it been CASp certified (ask to see certificate).If the property houses medical anything then it is imperative that you make sure it is ADA compliant, because the level of compliance required is much higher. 

I was sort of shocked to see this popped up, thanks for the kind words.We've set out to make compliant tenant screening for property managers and multifamily owners dead simple and super accurate.

Not quite ready for a full stride walk but getting there.Would anyone who's been doing Creative RE in California mind sharing which contracts they use  for Sub to's and Land Contracts (just the name of them) in order to be compliant with the all legal aspects.I have a decent understanding of which ones I need, but decent is not satisfactory for me when it comes to legal.

Federal and State laws apply apply regardless of your source of funds, but there are exemptions when you fund with your own money, not a get out of jail free card, but you're not as restricted as other lenders that have investors or others involved in funding loans.As I mentioned, what the public might be engaged in as acceptable or common does not make an activity legal or compliant.

@Maz Maziveistart with your REIA in LA, Then www.sellerfinanceconsultants.comAsk simply for an RMLO that is Dodd Frank compliant in Louisiana

To be compliant with the Dodd-Frank "Safe Act" an owner-finance deal simply needs to be run through an RMLO.
