Maybe this person is willing to do a master lease potentially with option to buy (no, I wouldn’t but that’s me).  

If the current owners didn't need the cash, a master lease type structure could be a way to go to get you control of the property, but somehow a Will, or Trust in this case, would have to name you as the heir. 

I photoshopped a Tulum map with the future master plans to get a feel for how Tulum will look in a couple of years... mixed feelings. 

I ALSO tell the lender directly that the appraiser must call me for access... in other words, until he talks to me, Jesus himself ain't getting entrance unless he brought along a master key.When I talk to the appraiser, I ask him some very carefully-worded, very on-point questions -"How are we looking for comps?"

I worked in NYC CRE & have my masters in RE finance & development. 

Some areas needed new subfloor, new carpet in living room and master bedroom.

Quote from @Nicole Masters: My husband and I started by saving up our money and purchasing a single family house with 5 bedrooms and a bonus room.

If Gabe can't fit you in, feel free to hit me back up, I can ask some of my old solar bro's (licensed/insured Master electricians) if they're looking for side work.  

Do a lot people rent out their homes during the Masters? 

Basically you have a master lease to the local Chapter and they fill in the rooms as needed.Some considerations:1.
