Quote from @Matthew Paul: I understand how businesses work.

I don't even think she knew what I was talking about and she had a heavy accent and didn't seem to understand me very well.  

One of my close friends in the busines had a similar setup.. her husband was also a contractor, and together they tackled a fixer-upper that ended up netting them a solid profit on their first deal.When you’re hunting for the right property, I’d lean on a realtor who really understands investor math... someone who’ll help you break down potential cash flow or resale value.

You will want to consult with a lawyer.In regards to your last two questions here's some background on what makes a contract valid and enforceable:Offer: A promise to do or not do something within a certain time period Acceptance: A clear and direct statement that all terms and responsibilities are accepted Consideration: A legal and adequate inducement given in exchange for the promise Capacity: The parties to the contract must have the legal capacity and competency to contract Awareness: A party must be aware of the contract Legality: The contract must be legal in the jurisdiction it will be operating in***Not legal advice*** Steps I would take: -Review contract in detail to understand each counterparties responsibilities (if you are not aware)- Email a copy of the lease to each of the tenants listed on the lease and reiterate lease expectations for termination notice, rent payment etc. - If the lease was signed via Docusign (other esign may have same ability) - you can go to the envelope, go to history and view the IP addresses for each action taken.

If your properties are generating solid cash flow or have appreciated significantly, you might be following a “smart leverage” strategy, à la Grant Cardone.

You need a solid proven system to find the deals.

Each housing authority (HA) provides a voucher amount determined by bedroom and some further define it by zip code or city w...

I also completely understand the frustration of navigating through "Joker brokers" and fake lenders who promise more than they can deliver—one of the biggest challenges in the industry today.Regarding your approach to accrual-based repayment options, that’s a huge help for flippers managing tight cash flow, and it's great that you offer that flexibility.
