Wondering if there were any mentors who could examine my numbers on a rental house that I own.I own it outright.

In order for the plaintiff to do that, the plaintiff must prove two things: there must be a unity of interest and ownership such that the separate personalities of the entity and the owner no longer exists; andan inequitable result will follow if the acts are treated as those of the entity alone.Unity of Interest and OwnershipThese are factors the plaintiff could use to show a unity of interest and ownership exists:one individual's ownership of the entire entity;use of the same office or business location by the LLC and owner;commingling of funds and other assets of the owner and the entity;an individual holding out that he / she is personally liable for debts of the corporation;failure to maintain minutes or adequate corporate records;disregard of corporate formalities;absence of corporate assets and inadequate capitalization; andthe use of an entity as a mere shell, instrumentality or conduit for the business of an individual.Importantly, no single one of these factors is determinative, but the court must examine all the circumstances to determine whether the “unity of interest” test is met.

@Russell Brazil  In addition not sure what my buyer was thinking.. the second the new buyer wanted to close if they wanted title insurance there is no way a decent title examiner would let that deed fly..   

When examination of a Property reveals noncompliance with the Property Acceptability Criteria, the Appraiser must note all repairs necessary to make the Property comply with HUD’s Property Acceptability Criteria, together with the estimated cost to cure.Am I understanding correctly that the appraiser should have not walked away and should have detailed any other items that could potentially come up during this week's appraisal?

20% of real estate agents do 80% of the sales - the rest are real estate agent in name only - they neither ever list a property nor have buyers - real estate agents are sales people and have to have strong sales skills to survive - sales skills can be learned but are not taught through taking the real estate examine nor by they typical broker.

Under Section 43-40-8(c) of the Georgia Code, a person can be a licensed Broker if they “(1) have attained the age of 21 years; (2) are a resident of the state of Georgia; (3) are a high school graduate or the holder of an equivalency; and have complied fully with the requirements of subsection (b) of Code Section 43-40-15 regarding any criminal convictions; (4) have maintained a license in active status for at least three of the five years immediately preceding the filing of an application to become a broker; (5) furnish evidence of completion of 60 instructional hours in a broker’s course of study approved by the commission; and (6) stand and pass a real estate examination administered by or approved by the commission covering generally the matters confronting real estate brokers after completing the requirements of paragraph (5) of this subsection and after maintaining a license in active status for at least three of the five years immediately preceding such examination.”[12]#6: What is the intended purpose of the Georgia laws regarding Brokers?

So, @ Dave Foster, on another note, I amended a return and requested an examination.

Examining the title policy issued at point of origination could yield some fruitful responsibility but will not be speedy.I’m betting that a quiet title action will be what your attorney and title company recommends.

I am a real estate investor and I am about to start spending more time at the judicial auctions I am looking to form a relationship with a title company to examine property titles on a daily basis so I can feel comfortable bidding on these properties.
