For now, we were toying with flips, brrrrr, buy and hold, multi, even construction of multi, but... the numbers just do not add up in this market, so we are waiting... who knows for what... great deal or recession...

Most of the regs prohibit it within the city, so I would check and see if the area you are looking allow it.Your best bet is to look at the markets on VRBO and AirBNB and see what is out there right now.

so after reading all the posts, it sounds like his best bet is just to move on and walk away finding another place maybe coming back in future to keep contact with that person if he really wants that location… Correct me if I’m wrong, but my analysis from all this is that hiring a squatter would only be applicable in situations where the person who is occupying the residence never had a lease or contract therefore it is a rare circumstance where it would be a viable option. 

However, in practice, lenders rarely enforce it as long as mortgage payments are current and there’s no added risk for them.If you want to avoid triggering the due on sale clause, the safest bet is to wait a few months after closing before transferring the deed to your LLC.

Unless you are doing construction and acting as a GC, owning a property management and leasing company as well as owning real estate, maybe then have one.

As soon as you start discussing your business practice and strategies with your customers (tenants), then all bets are off and you run the risk of Fair Housing violations. 

The person will assist in some prop management but largely the GP will oversee/ manage most of the deal (design, permits, construction, leasing).

If you have your down payment ready and are looking into commercial real estate, long-term rentals, short-term rentals, fix and flips, house hacking, BRRRR, or new construction, I'm here to assist you.

New construction or turnkey properties could be viable options for you.

In fact I would bet not even the asset protection services who send you down these rabbit holes can and therein lies the problem...
