We decided to go with a DSCR in the LLC name to help protect our personal assets… We are near closing which has taken WAY too long in my opinion… (we are on month 3 with 3 extensions)…Regardless, at this point 2 of the 4 of us in the partnership are being asked to sign as guarantors of the loan…1 Is this normal?

It's on a 10070 sq foot lot.

I know Deed in Lieu is a common and normal practice.

Everything you describe though is just the normal process of how taxes are reassessed when a property is sold.  

15% on top of the normal month charge is a rip off.

I normally pick and choose the events I go to based on what will be discussed. 

Pay for your own painting and make them pay normal rent.

The site hasn't changed, literally not at all.The people, my friends here, people I know, help change the perspective by doing what they have done for years, just posting and responding with words of wisdom and a 20,000 foot view.

It runs us normally about $175/lot installed.

I'd rent first to be sure I'm going to stay. 105 degrees to 115 is normal May to October in Scottsdale and no Puget Sound
