Structuring the Deal with a PartnerWhile your partner cannot directly participate in the loan, there are ways to structure your arrangement to reflect your 50/50 partnership:Option 1: Post-Purchase Equity SaleYou obtain the 203(k) loan in your name as the owner-occupant.After closing, you sell your partner 50% equity in the property via a quitclaim deed or similar legal instrument.Your partnership agreement would outline each person’s roles, responsibilities, and share of profits.Note: Be mindful of FHA’s rules around title changes and ensure this doesn’t violate loan terms.Option 2: Partnership Contribution AgreementYou both contribute to the down payment and renovation costs as outlined in a partnership agreement.Your partner’s contribution could be recognized as a share of the equity in exchange for funding, services, or property management.The partnership agreement would detail how profits, responsibilities, and equity are split.Option 3: Joint Venture AgreementStructure the deal as a joint venture, where you own the property personally (required for the FHA loan), but profits and roles are split per a formal agreement.Your partner could receive equity-like compensation through profit-sharing without being on the title.3.

Yall will get away with that crap on this earth, least y'all not forget the ultimate authority NO ONE can escape from, my opinion but I kinda think he'd frown on that behavior.

They are not allowed in certain master planned communities.Summerlin, including Sun City Summerlin▪ Town Center▪ Skye Canyon▪ Cliff’s Edge▪ Symphony Park▪ Grand Canyon Village▪ Las Vegas Medical District▪ Providence SquareAnd these restrictions I find would be the most difficult for you to overcome - A short-term rental license does not provide authority to violate any common-interest community’s covenants,conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs).
