@Chris Henry By property is best practice.

They also shared templates that you can use to analyze deals, checklists for closing on a deal, and more practical templates.

The response of the government was to REQUIRE property owners to continue to provide housing ,eating minimum standards, even as they were losing money.  

Credit score and experience level are the key factors to how much leverage we can provide you. the standard is 80% of purchase and 100% of rehab and those deals are the easiest and fastest to get funded.

It is best practice to wait 6 months and most lenders won't and shouldn't do it before then. 

California has a couple of additional hoops post foreclosure sale, if its a real foreclosure sale but its still pretty standard.

Here,  in Georgia, all agents use a standard contract so I don't need to run the offer by a lawyer.

There aren't as many resources for rent to own agreements as there are for standard rental agreements, so I just wanted to inquire and network with investors in the upstate area if they are using it.What criteria do you have when looking for deals?

I was told that you just form a standard LLC and I would just list my current LLC as a managing member.
