That does sound like potentially a familiar status issue.Put it this way, if the four adults are all brothers and sisters you wouldn't have a problem with this 4+5 arrangement? 

The Goal: My sister and I have a property tied up with the (possibly harebrained) plan to clean, paint, carpet, create an unpermitted “flag lot” with fencing, and fix a plumbing issue (10k), place tenants ($1,350/month.)

It could be a spouse, mother, father, brother, sister, etc that is recommending they don't use you as an agent because you are a friend.

If so, how did you structure things and could you share your experience.I heard the guest on this weeks podcast #348 talk about how she did this with her sister and it really had me thinking.

We market my sister-in-law’s artwork in some our AirBNBs.

Even if we take a bath on the investment funds used and have to pay the income tax on it, this deed will likely be an issue when my sister and I have to sell the property in many years when my parents have passed away.

The home has about 100k available to borrow...parents live in the home...trust is in the parents, mine and my sisters name.

I am looking to free up my debt from the mortgage where my tenants are to possibly buy and/or cosign a home for my sister.

My sister and I got in to real estate investing after a family member passed away and left us a sum of money.

Hello yesterday me & my sister went driving for dollars we drove the whole day & found a number of vacant houses which we feel like it was a good start but the the problem is how do we locate the owners of these properties?
