I have a local handyman that helped me hired junk removal company and pest control for the roaches.

Build a local team, including a trustworthy real estate agent, property manager, and inspector, to help you identify and manage deals remotely.

I would think their loan documents give them the right to control the property after the original owner dies - regardless of who is living there (although I have no direct knowledge of the laws where you live).There are details we don't know here... like if you want the house for sentimental reasons, or because you see the value between what it's worth on the market today and what the reverse mortgage company wants for it?  

In the last few years, they've made illegal:-Rent controls of any kind-Limiting of fees or screening charges-The ability of HOAs to regulate STRs or LTRs in their neighborhoodThat's just the start.

To maintain control and avoid being locked into larger deals, consider directly owning replacement properties or exploring a partial 1031 exchange while carefully structuring syndication investments.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

If you start a JV in name but do not give your partners proper control and decision-making rights and the deal goes bad you open yourself up to serious consequences which can lead to SEC violations with extremely high fines.Lastly, you can offer the project up to investors who have no voting or control.  

Totally out of control.

Single family homes are exempt from rent control when privately owned.
