Or would you rather accept the risk of holding in exchange for getting the money tax free.That's a really intriguing question!!!  

If you accept applicants with no social security number or the ability to read and understand a lease agreement, then you shouldn't require a social security number from anyone.Two thoughts:1.

George, never accept partial payment of rent.

However, if you have a tenant that does not have an ESA it’s perfectly acceptable to charge a pet deposit and a monthly pet fee.

I would not accept the tenants bank card.  

McTaggart.In a commercial lease it is acceptable to include language that requires a tenant to pay for the landlord's attorney's fees and costs however it is not allowed in the residential context.

So in the day it was common for me to fund a loan in my company name then over the course of the next 30 days or so assign out our interest so we could fund another loan.Generally in CA up to 10 investors on one note is acceptable after that in my day you had to do a securities filing. 

Hello,A good rule of thumb in NC I tell my sellers about: if we get lots of showings in the first 2-4 weeks, but no offers, the price is too high by a good bit (15-25% estimated).If we get showings, and one low ball offer, the price is a little too high (5-10% too high).The longer a property sits on the market, the more likely you'll end up accepting a lower price ...better to go ahead and do a price reduction now and sell it faster, than letting it sit and eventually the market will do the price cut for you. 

I do have a Commercial Fix and Flip Program that will provide cash for the acquisition and to Rehab the property.Once it's stabilize we can secure Permanent Financing and take out the bridge loan.Multifamily has, by far, the most interest in CRE Financing world, if it's a good enough deal we can get you the financing but I refuse to make bogus promises about what is and is not possible.If you DO NOT have the cash to put down on the property there a few creative financing avenues which may be possible if you have a motivated seller that is willing to work with you on terms.The 68% occupied property would be most fit for creative financing because there is clearly something going on there with the current owner.You can look at a master lease with an option to buy or doing a wrap combined with a seller second... the only thing is that the seller is highly unlikely to accept those scenarios.Now... there is one "highly unlikely to happen" scenario where you could technically get 100% financing but, again, the seller would have to be out of his mind to say yes.It entails a Hard Money FIRST MORTGAGE of less than 50% of the "Quick Sale" value as determine by a BPO... this would serve as your down payment.

Because of my brutal impatience we just had an offer accepted for a 5 unit building with 2 store fronts and 3 apartments that all need to be gutted and renovated.
