In any event the buyers talked about taking me and the realtor/broker to court.  

Sun communities rent credit has not been tested in court or blessed by any authority.  

She said the process is similar to a short sale but requires court approval.Obviously, I will be researching this more throughout the weekend but I was just wondering about other investors' experiences have been in the past with these sort of sales.

However, if a determined tenant could display that you were charging them more rent for a duplicate property, for no justifiable business reason (rents went up after lease expiration, building taxes, etc), than another tenant, they could probably come up with a protected class reason that you were violating - race, age, family status, etc, and then you would be forced to use your "pain in the ***" logic in court to defend the differential.So I would say you should probably not proceed down that road, and if you do, I would probably delete this thread. 

What I'd consider doing is selling your current house and buying however many properties you can buy with the proceeds of the sale in a market where the R/V ratios are higher and is more linear in it's historic price action.  

I am a court reporter and have done many, many cases for the Contractors Board here in California where contractors did not adhere to the law regarding what is supposed to be included in their contracts, and how much money should be paid as a deposit and progress payments, etc.

If you are a bookkeeping client, I will have either prepared your books myself or checked over your work at quarterly intervals throughout the year at a rate of $25/hour so that in February, I already know your books are pristine and I can proceed with analysis, data entry, review and offering opinions for future tax savings (assuming we didn't do a tax forecast in the fall like we should have).  

I am currently flipping homes in Orange County and just purchased a home at the court house steps.  

I would not have Robert as a full partner, offer him 25-40 percent of the net proceeds, he is representing you, he is a buyer for you.

I want to find some off market deals but I haven't quite wrapped my mind around the best way to proceed doing that yet.
