Requirements for 7 are income under 80k for single. lawyer says should be fine, but you never know.

Is it worth getting a real estate lawyer, sending a demand letter, going to small claims court, suing, or doing anything like that?

But if you have to, consult a local lawyer and get the process started asap.Security?

You can have Home Owners and Flood Insurance and the Big Bad Wolf will blow your house down and then, you need to pay a lawyer to try to collect damages from Insurance who may never pay you. 

I would also discuss with your lawyer about providing a General Warranty deed.

If this is Hamilton Couty, there are three or four lawyers who have regular dockets in the Eviction room.

Highly recommend hiring a lawyer that knows CA landlord tenant laws inside and out in your specific area. 

I am curious if I should be talking with a lawyer about putting one or both of them in an LLC? 

Or should I seek out a lawyer?

My neighbor said on a face book town page - she was thinking of putting the house up for sale- She did not really did not want anyone in the house because she is a hoarder & had her special needs son living in the basement apt- with NO egress window ( against fire code) / I told her we could do the deal with lawyers - and save money on real estate agents (at that time the seller paid all commissions) How did you finance this deal?
