It spells out the monthly rent,when it’s due, the length of the lease (or term), should contain clauses required by the federal and state governments, andmuch more.

That is exactly the type of answer I was looking for without having to spell out each deal.It’s definitely two different goals that are competing right now business growth vs real estate investment growth.Once I get more solid numbers on the proposed commercial deal I think it will paint a picture where the office isn’t the best option. 

If you are going to hire the Tenant, have a written agreement that clearly spells out what they'll do, materials they'll use, who pays for materials, whether labor will be paid for, what happens to the improvement when the tenant leaves, and a deadline for completing the work.

Have a written policy that spells out basic responsibilities: keeping animal under control, no barking, clean up after it quickly, repair damages immediately, etc.

THAT will spell out what can or cannot happen. 

@Dom Battezzato yea, for sure, I thought once I closed my first one that I would just be on a continuous role, but def had some dry spells. 

step 1: talk to him. step 2: listen step 3: come back and inform us what he says.we can play hypotheticals all day. up till the point you ask how he feels about the offer, it's an endless cycle of if's. call him, say you were curious to hear his thoughts on owner financing, when he asks what you mean, share these details. if he is reluctant, spell out the pros of doing it and then the cons.

Again, not sure what your lease spells out or what your states statutes say either.

Typically YES, but make sure this is spelled out in the PPM on how much leverage (percentage standpoint) as people if they invest in IRA $ and you say no leverage then take leverage and they get hit with UDFI they will get ticked off.Lastly, when I evaluate CF for a SFH I take out my % for maintenance, capex, management etc.

@Kyle Smith this should probably be structured as a partnership LLC that owns the property with a detailed operating agreement spelling out all of these terms.
