We wrote into our purchase agreement that a separate septic agreement needed to be drawn up and attached to the recorded deed for all future owners which protected us and the other home owner,  and will make it easier to sell in the future with that in place. 

It’ll make things easier if it happens again!

Real estate is a long term game once you understand that it gets easier my friend .

I recommend LLC, because its far easier to dissolve the partnership than having to retitle the real estate if one wants to buy the other out etc.  

Add Hurricane Ian and you're not making anything easier or more timely. 

Because this property is located in midtown historic district of Sacramento, we feel there may be market for both MTR and STR, but first thing is we will target LTR and let 3 or 4 units filled in.When we first start developing this apartment from ground up, it was intended to flip and move on to the next project, with timing and interest rate etc.. we deiced to keep it as a cash cow for a while and see how things go.  

If I was looking in PG County, I think Hyattsville and College Park would be my main targets.

Questions:- Commercial Loan - what are the best terms to target?

Not sure, but I don't see interest rates coming down much in 2025.There are always opportunities if you look for them, no one will like bring them to your front door on a silver platter.It seems like when you aren't looking for opportunities they do present themselves.Kinda like it's easier to find a girlfriend when you already have one.

From the side of being a sponsor and having worked with almost all of the firms being discussed to get investors into our fund (I can say quest was great to work with since they are no longer around), there are those that are definitely a lot easier to work with than others and some really drag on the paperwork process whereas others are great.
