after seeing this black swan event of Covid and rent moratoriums that were out of the investors control..

I am an animal lover but the dogs before people thing is out of control.

@Suzanne Player I’ve had good experiences with Cinch Home Warranty here in NC.

There is no way to tell, but this escrow thing puts a third party in control of deciding if the work is completed 100%, if it's good enough, etc...

Since there is no custodial requirement for the 401k, you don't need the additional expense and administration of an LLC to obtain checkbook control.

Keep in mind Cmhc polls the larger players, REITS mainly.

I do not do tax liens but have looked at them in the past and have found that to buy in major areas you have to be a major player to get anything worth value - and typically you have to get very lucky as the funds come in and buy the tax liens for very low returns because their cost of capital is so low. 

It's challenging not having complete control, and not being able to ensure deadlines are met.

Original borrower must control or own a majority interest in the LLC.3.

The fourplex only exists because the zoning has been grandfathered in, on paper it is R2.This is my understanding of how SB 330 would affect my project:If I raze the building, I can't build anything less than four units ("An affected city or an affected county shall not approve a housing development project that will require the demolition of occupied or vacant protected units, unless all of the following apply: (A) (i) The project will replace all existing or demolished protected units.)Additionally, because the units exist under rent control (market rate), the rents of the new buildings in the future must also be rent controlled.
