I control the Regulation D filings, which investors I interface with, what rights are vested in shareholders interests, etc.

@Aaron MoayedYou may be able to search 1st the County Assessors site for previous owner and then the County Recorders site by their name to see all the documents that have been filed including Judgments and Judgment Liens.

Has anyone ever done a deal which included a proper and complete residential fuel oil tank decommissioning having been performed by the seller personally (not a hired contractor), using cat litter, then never having the decommissioning certified/filed/inspected with the proper local authorities? 

I am taking my business from a 2 member LLC where we filed a K1 for 2018 to a Single member halfway through 2019.

In this state (ohio) one has to file for a writ of possession (different from writ of detainer) with the foreclosure court case instead of a new civil eviction case. 

In addition to what @Brian Burke mentioned, I would check the PPM, SEC Reg D (assuming it was Reg D filing) and operating agreement to make sure you can swap out investors. 

I don't bother with incorporating in CA, just file out of state and get a cert of foreign status. 

You could have a tenant 10 years into the future file a complaint against you and use this post as evidence.Good luck with your issue and hopefully they pay for the damages.

How have I taken the plunge:1] I have visited 2x single family homes in the past 2 weeks.2] I have visited 2x duplex properties today [See attached file for the duplex of interest].3] I have obtained bank pre-approval for a loan. 

You will need to ask a lawyer licensed to practice in the state where you filed.
