The terms negotiated with the seller were favorable for us, and the seller also got what he wanted which was a quick and easy sale.

That’s with calling in favors.  

@David McCracken its alot of unanswered questions and it seem like you are doing a favor for them.

Do your research and only purchase properties that show the numbers are clearly in favor of the returns you need.I’ve been doing str’s for over a decade, I own multiple homes now and I’m currently developing 10acres of land into more.. to me, this is easy money.

I realize that laws are written in SF in favor of tenants. 

the answer is no, never ;) )So dude, do yourself a favor and get a website RIGHT NOW,and if I ever hear you asking if you need a website you are GROUNDED!

Luck favors the prepared.

If you have any family here, that would likely be acceptable. 3-We are approaching the best time of the year to sell (June, July, August) and properties are achieving extremely high sales prices with favorable terms for sellers such as no inspection and no contingencies. 

If you did, the terms and rate would not be favorable in order for the lender to curb risk.

There's just no way to twist it to favor your argument.You don't own the property.
