But I have no problem spending my money on houses or real estate.It just so happens that owning property in Los Angeles county over the past 27 years has made me a good amount of money, mainly through appreciation.So am I an investor or am I consumer. 

Hi Ian, I can really only speak for my lending firm and every company I've worked for in the past.  

Let me know how I. An

I am not a realtor nor am I an agent. 

@Amy Wan  @Ian Ippolito @Mark Roderick @Jillian Sidotti I wish I could tag more crowdfunding lawyers but apparently they aren't members.

@Ian Turner  The Orchard does not need to pay the taxes to establish adverse possession.    

@Ian Kisbert sometimes the loan type you used to purchase the property will require an appraisal (Hard Money for example) but not always.  

Hi @Ian Kisbert, in my experience the source of the funds will need to be verified if it is a conventional loan but not necessarily if it is a commercial loan (which stays on the books of the local bank or lender you are dealing with to provide the primary loan on the property).  

My name is Ian Ramos.
