@Abby H.Shifting from house hacking to small multifamily is a great way to scale, and securing a JV partner is all about networking, credibility, and structuring a win-win deal.

If a Designer or Contractor is proposing to remove a wall and does not think to check the structural integrity of said wall, then they are no one you should be dealing with.

I've only been in a week so far, I'm hoping there is a little more structure for new members than there seems to be at this point.  

Interesting about the wind-down structure, I'll look into that more. some existing HMLs that don't have cooperating banks right now and probably would be glad to have it.  

The purchase was structured to ensure both our partner and the seller benefited, allowing for a smooth and timely acquisition.

HVAC or any structural issues like foundation or framing should automatically be outsourced to a contractor.

• Payment Structure: • What is your payment schedule?

Irrevocable trusts may trigger reassessment unless structured carefully.Gradual Transfers – Transferring less than 50% at a time could potentially avoid reassessment, but IRS step transaction rules could still trigger a tax event.Joint Ownership – Your aunt adds your mother as a co-owner, then your mother adds you later.

This includes all structural drawings, exterior drawings, framing plan, mechanical plans, plumbing plans, electrical plans, gas line plans, roof layout plan.I tried to work with a couple of firms and the pricing for all these came all over the places.I also came across a company called flip16.com (September Development, LLC)  who said they can do all of the civil engineering and architectural drawings work at a fraction of the price compared to those civil engineering and architectural firms.

It will be structured as the seller's concession to the buyer of 2%, then the agent gets 3%, or whatever the seller agrees to pay that agent after the 2% goes to you.
