@David Georgeson understand that you are frustrated, upset and basically looking for a scapegoat.Unfortunately, no PMC that knows what they are doing would be responsible for this.How do you realistically expect a PMC to keep someone from breaking into your property and illegally occupying it?

Sure, some absolutely have benefited, S.Korea is a fair example BUT, one can argue it would just be "Korea" today if only MacArthur wasn't planning a run for President there after and ignored Chinas warning and offer of peace to stop with all but total victory, instead pushing to Chinese border, pulling them into it and literally loosing the entire north....    

I’m based in California, and it seems the building department is upset about the lack of permits.

@Bill Schrimpf This is upsetting to read.

He has all the rights to be upset.

Along the same timeline we contracted another property and after a day or two realized that his loan product would not fit that particular property so we promptly told him that we were going to go with a different lender and the guy got very upset and went off on us etc. etc. and even brought up the properties that came back with the lower appraisal.

I think you’ve had a lot of bad experiences, you’ve spent tons and tons of money on being a broker and paying the company you work for, and it’s upsetting when anyone with some knowledge can swoop in more or less do what you do but spend a lot less time doing it and make a LOT more as well.

Next, we will start seeing SkipTRACING posts, GOD FORBID LOL  You are upset because this poster is FAR ahead of YOU!!!

Some things to consider with the above suggestions of creating an LLC and contributing the property + $100,000.The basis the partnership has in the property is transferred from Person A.If person A's basis in the property is $100,000 but the value is now $200,000.The depreciation would be based on the $100,000 instead of $200,000 which may 'upset' partner B.Furthermore, you have to properly structure it so the IRS does not see it as a 'disguised sale'.A disuised sale can potentially occur when Partner B contributes $100,000 into the partnership and it is immediately transferred to Partner A.best of luck

My question for you is why are you so upset about someone asking about connecting and trying to see if my market fits their needs?
