Good on you for taking advantage of your situation, because in the end we all have distinct advantages we just have to take advantage of them.

By the way I didn't know you can lease a smoothe for 1 year man wonder if it's pomegranate flavor!!!!!

And that’s an important distinction.

The reason we have at least some socialistic flavored laws is due to the fact that if they did not exist the communistically minded capitalists would rape the population more than they are, so since you are not in a position to buy the bank you need to protect yourself since the name of the game seems to be survival of the fittest.

I think most of us are pretty easily able to make the distinction between someone who comes on here looking to sell something and someone who wants to add value.If you are not here for the right reasons, I don't see why people reminding "new members" of the rules as a bad thing, although I would probably do it less aggressively than some.

May be different in your area, but there is still a major distinction for most buyers.You seem very confident about the ARV, but then you say lots of stuff that indicates you think you might not be able to sell the house.

I do not believe in commingling assets plus you avoid a DOS which I know is a not going to happen but you know doing it this way it never can since you are following federal law specifically USC 1701 j d (3) or Garn St Germain Act of 1982 under section 8a.No only do you get anonymity in your real estate holdings you get a degree of asset protection not ironclad yet nothing really is..Most investors do not understand the distinct advantages of using land trusts in their investing there are actually 30 realized benefits if not more.What you should also consider if you wish to leverage this property for the higher lease payment is you can do a tax lease trust and have the beneficiary take the active tax write-off following IRC 163 h 4 (d) and no tax advice intended and that is a tax lease trust since you probably wish somebody to take care of the property and a N-N-N lease would work very well in that case.

Sounds like you need to follow James' suggestion and look at additional ways to target motivated sellers.Motivated sellers come in many flavors.

There is no longer a distinction between personal and SMLLC assets."

But, the distinction is important enough that I would suggest everyone who doesn't know the difference (and the relationship) spend some time learning.Here's another good read:http://stats.org/in_depth/faq/causation_correlation.htmOnce you understand that causation has a VERY SPECIFIC mathematical definition, you'll start to see why three random examples from Rich and one from you doesn't prove anything.In fact, when the most educated, experienced and respected economists in the country don't necessarily agree that there is a causative affect between taxes and unemployment, Rich's three examples and your one example aren't going to prove otherwise...regardless of how much you guys thinks you've "proven" it.
