I am not going to even get into the video itself because the renovation looks like a complete disaster but relying solely on information that's public and easily accessible, this single family home was purchased by DH1 Fund LP, a RAD affiliate in 2017 at a sheriff sale and transferred from predecessor company to DDH Fund LP in 2019.

This is what I am encountering, in the current Mortgage Industry.If you think you will go FHA, Conventional, FHA 203k, etc. and then Quit Claim the property, to a Corporate Entity, or a Land Trust you run the risk of the lender discovering a Title Transfer occurred and activating the "Acceleration Clause" or "Due on Sale Clause" that requires the loan to be paid in full, within 'x' number of days.

You may need to seek legal counsel on this.2) Get all the info about your rental property as possible: leases, rent ledgers, tenant contact info, etc.3) Start looking for a new PMC4) Execute your termination notice5) Once transfer is complete, circle back to decide if worth suing them.

I suspect that DSCR lenders are more likely to exercise the DOS option when transferred.

So if I was dealing with a seller who was insisting on handling the transfer this way, I would be wondering what the seller is trying to hide... and I would figure it out.

Could you gift the down payment to your mother in law so she can buy it and then transfer title to you when your house is done?

But they are working hard to try and make the permits non-transferable.

Transfer these pics to your computer. 

I would still work with a title company on this and let your lender know (if you have one) of the name change and what you are doing so they do not think you are selling the property.Another option would be to create a living trust for estate purposes and transfer it into the estate.

@Jonathan Greene @Jay Hinrichs @Nicholas L. short sales are almost always done through RE agents and are a major pain the butt if the lender servicer wont respond in a timely fashion.Pre foreclosure you dont use and agent but if your talking NY I think and not totally sure but I think only an attorney can draft the Deed transfering title .
