Quote from @JD Martin: My long term rentals may be boring but they've made fantastic returns.

I've brokered with them quite a few times and while they are not my top lender, they are in the top 5.

google "all inclusive Deed of Trust" fantastic CA document we used all the way back in the early 80s If I'm not mistaken though a wrap would require the 2nd buyer to also agree to financing terms; which would be the same as me (the 1st buyer).
