Hehe, I just tested in on our lake house.

Check your state laws as to whether you can accept SDs into Operating account and transfer to SD account or if SD must be directly deposited to SD account.

Depending on your level of income from those investments, you could be better off biting the bullet and accepting the ordinary income classification while exploring SE limiting strategies like forming an S-Corp.

I do not accept personal checks under any circumstances for these move-in funds.This agreement is between_________________________________________, hereafter referred to as “Prospective Tenant(s),” and ____________________________, hereafter referred to as “Landlord.”Landlord acknowledges receipt of payment in the amount of $___________ from Prospective Tenant(s) as a non-refundable binder for the property listed above.

Be sure to clarify the lender's stance on total CLTV (Combined Loan to Value) at 100%, as not all will accept this structure.

So, for example Washington might survey a 1 million acre estate, offer to purchase 550 premium acres (or accept such as payment for his services) and “bank” those 550 acres for future development. 

DO NOT accept their numbers and do your own due dillegence.

The estoppel is a form filled out by the tenant, then confirmed by the Landlord, and then accepted by the Buyer.

Unfortunately having title issues is one of the reasons that sellers are sometimes willing to do seller financing simply because they know mortgage companies won't approve without proper title work and title insurance so they have to be more creative in the ways they sell but that can be risky for you as a buyer.If you do seller finance I recommend having very specific terms on HOW payments will be made and accepted and using a professional service like https://www.agecroftcapital.com/ for loan management in the case of any disputes - just my personal rec, not sponsored by BP though I do work for BP :)

But I'm not dead set on anything accept that I would like to be in Florida.
