Do not rely on it for legal advice.

if the property is in your name and not that of a corporate entity, consider pro se court. it is a subsection of small claims court. designed specifically for those without lawyers.

If I self manage my properties but want to take advantage of the LLC S Corp designation for single-tier taxation, can I pay my small business to manage my property so that I only pay business income tax and not FICA tax on the rent that I’m using to manage the property?

@Tomiko Graves An LLC is a legal entity, with no bearing on taxation.

Legally they cannot take the check out of escrow until 30 days after the lease or until tenants sign the deposit over to landlords. 

Do any of you have recommendations on designing contracts and any specifics that should be in them above and beyond the MN state law?

As the lender I was issued a lender title insurance policy but I am not sure if the buyer got one too.So morally I actually do owe the taxes but legally it seems that my buyer ( because of his attorneys mistake) now will soon have a tax lien on the property.

I believe this "subject to" is the way I will go as long as I have a good legal contract to protect the seller and myself.

In theory, I believe you should be able to rent out STR in any complex in California, regarding of HOA rules, so long as it is permitted with the City.Your best bet is to seek legal counsel and run the Oxnard case by them to seek their opinion.
