I bought a home at auction, everything is online.

My original impression of rent to own was that it’s the same as regular rental, but with a buy date and additional funds being given as option fee.

LA around the metro stops there are a lot of developments coming online, I can see multifamily in those areas getting into the oversupply territory.Where in LA are you looking?

Tenant moved out before court date.

A bit dated and could use some repairs, but it's doing fine for her.

If the wife is to be removed from the lease, a date should be set off when she would vacate since all parties living on the premises should be on the lease.   

No online forum can replace real personal/professional expertise.  

@Brandon Turner's "The Book on Rental Property Investing" is absolutely great, and the audio version is fantastic - it is well-read, and he makes all the figures available online and tells you the URL (on Bigger Pockets) to view the figures.

But asking us to participate in structuring the cover up, not to mention posting it online, strikes me as rather poor judgment.There are plenty of ways to grow SDIRA's/401K's/HSA's/CESA's legitimately. 

It seems to me that everyone/everything I read online is about success via leveraged investments.
