@Abigail Lipson if you move forward, be sure to execute a Partnership Agreement spelling out how does what, penalties for not doing those things and what happens when one party wants out (or dies/incapacitated) and the other doesn't.

I can see that third bullet point affecting arbitragers for sure.

Additional insured is more about extending liability coverage to a third party like a property manager.

Its always been illegal from the state regulators view it violates the Real estate sales laws of brokering RE with no license.. the definition of brokering RE is to bring two parties together for compensation exactly what wholesalers do.. but without a valid license or listing agreement. 

You want to take a second loan (HELOC) on your primary residence to use it to go get a third loan, first on a new property?

Just to be equally critical of both parties, and make everyone mad, here are two examples: - Imposing tariffs on China absolutely contributes to inflation in many consumer goods. - Giving first time homebuyers $25,000 absolutely contributes to housing price inflationGetting some conservatives running for office to change their mind on the first point ain't gonna happen.

Without regard as to which political party held the White House, either.Your comment was unnecessary, particularly on a real estate board. 

@Donte Brame there's the RI Real Estate Investor Group that meets twice monthly, usually the first Thursday of the month online for anyone, and the third Thursday in-person for members in Warwick.

If they reside in New Orleans, where we are, we decline, because it will most definitely be a party in our rental.  

@Sovat C.The live tax free part is not true.
