Quote from @Luke Tetreault: My Fiancé and I will be wrapping up our 2nd year of investing part time in the next couple of months.

Next we will need to know if the non-conforming unit is legal.

I can also document that I have over 1,000 plus real estate transactions as an agent and an investor.I had two transactions that they just kept lying and telling me and selling me you will have CTC in a week or less, From each of those points it was more than 60 days.I begged loan officer and processor to be truthful.Their failure to close in a timely manner cost me dearly.

@Garry LawrenceDevin Moreno has a bunch of videos on rent-by-the-room strategy in Baltimore on hisYoutube channel.

Ensure the state provides a clear title upon sale.

The downside far outweighs the upside.

Would that be, for example, if the PM says, "I manage a duplex for John Smith in Turlock," then I call John as a reference, ask John a few questions, and then ask John the address of his duplex so I can later look it up on the county website and verify if he is the owner?

And that's great you are figuring out how to get to your next investment.
