In some places, from what I read in Forbes, even a finished outbuilding might be noted separately rather than rolled into the main house’s footprint.

Are there separate gas, electric and water meters for each apartment?

I really appreciate the emphasis on simplicity and clarity—especially the advice about keeping non-operating expenses separate from NOI.

(Some say the seller isn't really paying because they use the buyer's money and include it in the home's price, but that's a separate issue.)This lawsuit is a small first step towards letting buyers and their agents decide on a fair payment.Consider this: Why should a buyer's agent get paid the same amount whether they:1.Work with buyers for months and show 20 houses, or2.

This is NOT Business Credit.By establishing a separate corporate credit profile on the EIN Number (separate from the business owner's SSN/FICO), investors can access substantial business credit lines, capital for property acquisitions, and renovation funds without personally guaranteeing the debt.This approach creates a powerful financial firewall between personal and business assets while potentially generating a significantly larger (ROI) through reduced interest rates, increased borrowing capacity, and the ability to scale investments more rapidly.The education gap surrounding EIN corporate credit means savvy investors who understand and implement this strategy can gain a significant competitive advantage.

In most states there is protection in your primary home through the homestead exemption, your investment properties must be in a separate entity.  

Because the owners of Licensing Experts pay ALL CASH, the closing usually occurs 3-6 weeks, which is very fast compared to traditionally financed commercial deals I've seen on Bigger Pockets.The whole thing hinges on their very clever technique of getting existing commercial retail tenants engaged, willing to move into their newly acquired properties who are coming up for a lease renewal or lease expiration, rather than marketing for new commercial tenants - which would take way too long.Licensing Experts is somewhat of a "front" for their Mentorship Platform, as they evidently have many of their own separate entities for which they use to actually purchase and close on their commercial properties assigned by their mentees. 

The tenants are currently in court with a title dispute so the house would have to be paid for cash only.I would like to convert it to a primary residence and turn the garden level into a separate two bedroom apartment for use as an in law suite.

I doubt many are going into credit card debt or if they are that's kind of crazy.. as this part of real estate has no smoke and mirrors generally.And I suspect because most of these folks are doing some sort of PPM and need to deal with accredited investors.. that separates those wanting to start to those who have already had some financial win's or experience and just looking for a new avenue.. 

The fund itself is separate than these individual contracts.
