Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

But, the seller will never close a sale until the buyer releases that claim and withdraws the affidavit because a new buyer's title company will not issue a title policy and the new buyer's mortgage lender will not make a mortgage loan.Its not worth doing in this case but when real money is involved it is pretty effective.

There are large areas in the direction of the flight paths that do not have dense populations so it’s mostly a non-issue.

So, you can do a land contract for 12 months, which should allow lender to credit you full value of the land vs the purchase price, but the loan will pay off the land contract, so the lender maintains first lien position.Can't help you with the rest of your question, but you should be able to search for "CPA" here on BP to find experts to reach out to.

Even if you create a non-CA LLC, if you are managing the business from California, you will likely be deemed to be "doing business" in California and therefore likely subject to CA taxes.

My only concern to look out for is that things can go 'rural' pretty quickly if you start venturing outside of town, and most lenders are going to put the brakes on financing if the appraisal lists the property as 'rural' (has to do with what they perceive as the availability of future tenants).Watertown, NY - It probably is as good as you believe, but the lending licensing is pretty tricky up there, so its just  bit more difficult to find lenders that operate up there.

That would be for the deed, so use care not to trigger the acceleration clause with your lender.

Hey @Mike Williams, we actually have a lender in our network that can get this done.

If you need a lender for that, feel free to shoot me a DM.TYFYS and best of luck!

You can usually request this from a title company or look into public records in your county’s clerk or recorder’s office.If you’re not sure how to navigate this, contacting the auction house or a real estate attorney familiar with foreclosure auctions can help ensure there aren’t surprises.
