I strongly suggest you get an attorney.From my understanding of contract law, the lease should transfer to you, upon sale of the home.

Hi, does anyone know any attorney or provider that can assist with 1) transferring a Texas rental property from my relative to me (so that I can refinance), and then assist with a LLC (series?)

This may be a matter for legal counsel and financing source since you will have to determine how the funds are transferred and who will ultimately "own" the property & building(s). 

They hold the security deposit funds in their own accounts (so you'll have to transfer it to them).

Also ask him or her to give you a list of historical sales data for these areas for the past 2 or 3 years, this will allow you to analyze the areas to figure out the mean and median GRM for them.

@David Wright I don't know Michigan law, but here in Georgia you can transfer title in a property you acquire via Tax sale with a quit claim deed.

Kareem, We are an REI firm in Scottsdale and do anywhere from 2-4 deals a week wholesale and we have realtors that use our data and ringless voicemail to get interested sellers to call them, marketing is a relentless task but eventually you will build your pipeline.Anyway good luck!

The out of state lender, I am working with, told me that if I obtain a conventional loan then transfer the property to multi-member LLC at a later point, that might violate the ownership stipulation that was made at the time of the loan origination. 

Average is a dirty word in modeling….. and you can’t model using only the average.Take a look at your data and decide what distribution each variable should follow.

We are using a 1-4 Residential Loan under our personal names with plan to do a Deed Transfer to put it under my LLC post closing.
