I think I'd call animal control and let them sort it out.

Hey everyone,Does anyone know if  4-plexes in Oakland that are owner occupied exempt from rent control?

Yes, that sounds like another way to structure self-borrowing, besides a bona fide loan to a controlled entity.We should not have to play those games though.

Buy it and give them a Lease Option to Purchase...as long as they give you the 20% down.. this way you keep control of the home....

You’re basically holding one person to a lease and they in turn have a lease with someone else that they control.

If the deal finder were to receive equity in the deal, it would be a maximum of 20% (15% is more likely).That said, if you are interning for this experience investor, a salary is also another option.The increase in your compensation will be in the experienced investors' control.

Time lines and GC control.

This is exactly what I planned for my life, and I feel Great about my decision to create, and to take control of MY life!

Of course fed rates may have an effect on your overall picture but in my opinion this isn't something to stress about because it's largely out of our control as investors

It's my first deal and I have unofficial control so I want to work something out of this opportunity.
