There are attorneys that specialize in tax liens,deeds,etc.Might be beneficial for investors to consult those experts in the field.

It'll be beneficial for achieving your goals.

Whether you're a seasoned pro or just dipping your toes in the water like me, I'm a firm believer that our collective strength lies in lifting each other up.Nestled in the serenity of Grass Valley, I'm eager to forge bonds with fellow locals and cultivate a network built on mutual support and collaboration.

Doing the numbers on which one would be beneficial for your goals would ultimately position you to be in the best chance.

You don't want a QI that has a pooled trust account where they have the opportunity to invest that money and use it for good or nefarious purposes.All the insurance and bonding in the world (which are important) are only beneficial after a bad event has happened. 

Also not all houses would make a great STR, so getting local advice on location, size, etc would be beneficial.

WRONG  EMD need mutual cancellation  agreements signed by the property seller / owner and the buyer before the money is released and I can tell you by years and years of experience  EMD get held up all the time over squabbles  seller gets pissed off because wholesaler said he / she was buying the property when they really were not..

If you had it would be beneficial because you can enforce it with an attorney and go for penalties and damages. 

Just don't get stuck with lots of fees typically associated with 401k's mutual funds and some insurance products.

We find the STRs are more beneficial to us because we like to use them when we don't have a guest.
