If you have a business entity(you want to properly track money going in / out from its owners).They will likely be classified as contributions / distributions.Best of luck!

In California, a tenant is considered an “at will” tenant if ALL of the following conditions are met: (a) the individual occupies a property, or room within the property, with the owner, (b) there is no agreement for the occupancy to be for a specified period of time; AND (c) the individual occupying the property is not paying, and never has paid, any rent.

It looks like the owner is on Bigger Pockets, but not active on it.

The meet up I went to a number of times in San Antonio was more for the benefit of the owner of the meet up.

For people that want to close and make it pretty/official/permitted/etc once they are owners, the question is "what is the cheapest way we can get this to pass an appraisal without the appraiser calling for a licensed/bonded/professional/whatever to fix things prior to closing?"

Owner occupied loans have allowed us to purchase properties in markets with heavy appreciation, and potential for huge rent increases.

Thomas Cruz is the legal owner of a mansion in North Miami per the Miami Dade county property tax records.

For example in many jurisdictions I can STR units in a duplex but cannot STR an ADU (some jurisdictions will let you STR if you owner occupy).

Your not getting any STR properties via arbitrage your just managing someone else's property and the owner is getting most of the benefit. 

We’ve bought 150+ units in Jax that we owned and managed, we still own 51 units and we also manage for other owners.
