But, to Chris's point, if you have friends and family that already know like and trust you, then you are more likely to get a yes.Unfortunately, the reason you see all the "scammers" on social media is because it is easy to reach TONS of people with relatively little effort and money.  

Hi Wale, Who keeps the promissory note in your example #1 above, of using a Promissory Note and Mortgage or Deed of Trust?

Journalism went extinct as the parasite called marketing-media took it over so we can't trust literally ANYTHING anymore because everything is with some bias.

I don't mean to imply that managing large assets is particularly easy, but you have nothing to manage if you can't raise capital.Raising capital is all about sales 101: you need to get people to know, like and trust.  

To increase profitability, we brought on three more team members and shifted our focus entirely to outbound lead acquisition, pausing inbound lead generation.While we’ve had success with door-knocking, I’m unsure if we can rely on it alone to scale our business to the next level.

You are correct it’s a state by state thing but most states it is allowed - it also matters if it’s a primary or investmentFor example I believe Arizona you cannot get a deficiency after sale on Owner occupied but can on investment and in Texas I don’t believe you can attach to the home.Btw this is not something I typically do - but if the borrower is not going to play ball, then that’s different pretty much all west coast states you cannot get a deficiency judgement on a owner occ purchase money mortgage / deed of trust.. 

Another great success with our trusted partner!

If you can make the numbers work plus you have people in that market that you trust, thats a good opportunity. 

We could sell that house by itself, but it would be sold under a land in common agreement and an HOA would need to be formed.I also confirmed with the Public Works department that a 2nd driveway can go in, with a septic designer that there's room for second septic tank, and with the public water company that they can tap into the main water line from one of the neighboring roads.I'm sure there are some more details that I would need to iron out that the code officer didn't bring up, but the high level answer I was looking for is that my town does allow selling off a second house under the LD 2003 legislation.

Trust your gut here.
