In Tempe's single family districts, the maximum number of unrelated people that can live together is three (3), regardless of the size of the home or number of bedrooms in the home.Now, it's not like there are people out there regularly policing this (that I know of), but in the off-chance you or your buddy gets caught, there goes your rental.So either go for three bedrooms and make the numbers work or a 2-4 unit property.

This happened to me when a buddy and I bought our first house.

Between them they are financially very qualified and she does have an older dog that is her buddy but she’s not running any games with ESA or that garbage.

@Monelle Smith A buddy of mine just launched a new website where wholesalers and investors can list their properties for sale that other investors can search and contact the sellers.  

I see a future in which you've purchased all the rehab material, done some of the work, run out of time and money and your "new buddies" get a 90% rehabbed house for the cost of the HML.Just my opinion, but that's what you asked for!

I used to have a good buddy who thought that only the very wealthy should be politicians.

Regarding Trustee liability however, how do you see my buddy Fred (Trustee) incurring liability as a trustee for say a tenant who incurred damages at a rental?  

Scrap guy offered  me a third, him a third and his buddy a third. 

I was lucky to be able to "house hack", as I have my brother, buddy, and girlfriend all living in it, and covering the mortgage & utilities.

I agree and disagree buddy.
