You will want to consult with a lawyer.In regards to your last two questions here's some background on what makes a contract valid and enforceable:Offer: A promise to do or not do something within a certain time period Acceptance: A clear and direct statement that all terms and responsibilities are accepted Consideration: A legal and adequate inducement given in exchange for the promise Capacity: The parties to the contract must have the legal capacity and competency to contract Awareness: A party must be aware of the contract Legality: The contract must be legal in the jurisdiction it will be operating in***Not legal advice*** Steps I would take: -Review contract in detail to understand each counterparties responsibilities (if you are not aware)- Email a copy of the lease to each of the tenants listed on the lease and reiterate lease expectations for termination notice, rent payment etc. - If the lease was signed via Docusign (other esign may have same ability) - you can go to the envelope, go to history and view the IP addresses for each action taken.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

The lender will require that you live in it for 12 months and then you can rent out all of the units after that and start the buying process using the same strategy all over again after that 12 month period.  

The bullet in the response that is standing out to me is:"(7) The accessory dwelling shall not be a short-term residential rental, as defined by City Code section 3-2-152(a)(2), for a period exceeding 120 days per calendar year."

Worked fantastic with 1% fixed rate for 5 years, and 2,5% for the rest of the contract with variable rate. 

All the rest live in other states or countries.

Sometimes emails go to spam and simply some people just don't check their email religiously like the rest of us.

It can take up to three days to serve, then you can file in court after the 3-day period. 

Then follow the rest of the advice given here.

When your a housing provider where good decent people want to live, well the rest just has a way of taking care of itself, it really does.
