I am an Investment Advisor looking to get into multifamily through syndication (in the beginning stages of research and learning).

His assistant Mercedes contacted me on the arranged date/time answering a concentrated question that I had.

Maybe she just wasn't the right fit but it makes sense to me why a lot of long term tenants might not like the arrangement. 

It's a seamless and advantageous arrangement that ensures a smooth transition for both parties involved.This knucklehead wants 100% owner financing

I'm still in the education stage of the process and looking forward to working with everyone in the future.

Layers of complicated docs and arrangements lead to... potential complications!  

Now, I'm at the stage where I'm looking to refinance in order to pull out some of my initial investment.

Density is your friend, but seek out how to best do it to create a desirable place, minimize you utility/road costs, and retain value throughout the development stages (if phased).  

The seller assumes the role of lender while continuing to make payments on the original mortgage.In this arrangement, the originating lending institution can still foreclose on a property if the seller fails to maintain the mortgage.

My friend arranged for us to meet and I was amazed how much of smart yet simple guy he was, super down to earth.
