Running a property and being dependent on the kindness of strangers doesn't bode well for good returns. 

Deed of Trust is correct, but Quit Claim Deed shows Seller/Buyer as the stranger so it doesn't make sense.m  They are investigating it now and promised to fix it, but what recourse/compensation should they give me?

So they are not new to the space and no stranger to renovation.The 10 months comes and goes.

Can one of your partners sell their stake to any old stranger?

Last month, I was introduced to Rich Dad, Poor Dad by a total stranger.

If the party is neither friend or family they are then stranger.

I feel though since we are all strangers on the same mind set here I am more likely to get truthful answers from strangers than someone with an agenda.Brief overview.

Brandon, I doubt any strangers will want to take a chance and turn over their money to someone with no experience.

Michael, I would think that would lead to all sorts of issues with tenants claiming missing items, upset that they are forced to have strangers in their homes once a month, not straightening for the cleaners to actually clean, etc... probably the only ones that wouldn't have an issue with it are the ones that already keep their place clean.

ignoring all the other B.S. about how many other great candidates you have (I hate you btw :) ), if the stranger is the danger... why not go on a month to month lease until he arrives and then you can re-evaluate and have them move on, or enter into a longer term agreement...
