I could have been more assertive here also.  

As posted above the issue revolves around the political pressure being asserted by residents of the historic district who are resisting area homes being used as short-term (mostly VRBO and AirBNB rentals).

This is a serious assertion to be sure, by the source is very confident in their position.One person who gladly says she refers a lot of business to PIP Group goes by the monicker, “The Tax Lien Lady.”

(b) Notice of hearing shall be served in a manner authorized in subsection (a) upon:(1) Any person to whom the security interest instrument itself directs notice to be sent in case of default.(2) Any person obligated to repay the indebtedness against whom the holder thereof intends to assert liability therefor, and any such person not notified shall not be liable for any deficiency remaining after the sale.(3) Every record owner of the real estate whose interest is of record in the county where the real property is located at the time the notice of hearing is filed in that county.

“the preparation of legal instruments and contracts by which legal rights are secured” is clearly an overly broad generalization, as that would literally include simple documents such as a Tenant Lease or a Note bearing Interest.Most FSBO sales occur w/o agents and are effected with an Offer To Purchase from unknown sources.A contractor creates BIDS for work and once accepted & signed, become contracts with a percentage deposit.Commerce per se would be brought to a standstill if the above assertion were true and we have sufficient impediments already.While @Dion DePaoli has an interesting background and kindly cites specific codes, he too is not practicing Law, so as many have suggested, seek professional Legal Counsel.

So your goals for this letter should be 1) Tell him what you want 2) Tell him why he wants to help you 3) Sound assertive.

If you don't have access to enough cash flow and asserts to back the gamble.

You are correct in that when a seller does agree to allow other property to substitute on the collateral a separate mortgage document is drafted where the original seller (dare I say lender) agrees again to the terms of the original note with a new property serving as collateral.I do disagree with your assertion: "Loans purposely do not contain these types of clauses as that would lead to the exact idea you are trying to skirt which is never paying the loan off and transferring the secured interest of the note to new property. " If you have a 15-year mortgage note that a Seller has agreed to create and the underlying property is being refinanced within a 2-year period of that note's creation, to collateralize the note with another property - how does this equate to never paying of the loan?

Have any good "investment" assertive realtor(s) in the area that you recommend? 

And the Odd retail client who happens on to Scottsman Guide.It was always my assertion that all the debt side of crowdfunding was just being a HML which in essence is what they do.. cloaked in the new shinny object  IE : Crowd funding Portal"  I think it was a pretty neat move they made getting traction with all the mom and pops investing in their deals up to the point they can get institutional Credit facilities which are far easier to manage and maintain and can be cheaper as well..
