I've read all the pros and cons with tenants and the process as a whole.

I'm currently exploring options for speeding up the process of securing business funding and building corporate credit.

On the other hand if they are a sponsor that is experienced in stopping a skin in the game, that's a huge red flag for me.c) how open to scrutiny are they?

Those are huge steps. 

Joey, interested in learning more about your process.

Also, I won't profit right now from rental income - only my IRA will profit (yes I know it's me later in life), but I want more capital now so I can pay down my private student loan faster and repeat the process with other properties.The place is 1 mile from the beach, 2 minutes to the bus stop, 1 mile to the train, and less than 1/2 mile to a new mixed use development that will open this spring (just the 1st phase) and it's a 20 - 30 yr mixed use project. 

I second @Marc Rice Should be a very easy and straight forward process. 

(This update will not apply if you have a tax deed application in process and it is deeded prior to July 1, 2024.)Manufactured Homes are not currently included in this process.

I have 2 and they are a huge motivator for me.

I currently have 40k to invest, and am looking for someone to help guide me through the process.
