My understanding (at least in Colorado), is that if you are going to hold property as something other than tenants in common or joint tenancy and there are more than two people, you have to list out their names and ownership percentages in the deed.  

You have to take the basic tips and ask yourself how you can improve upon them to build YOUR business.

The only reason I'm selling is due it being a class D property/neighborhood, and I'm looking to improve my portfolio class, and id rather not fix anymore bullet holes.Buyer did inspections and came back with a laundry list of repairs, trying to justify a low ball reduction to $70k, minus 5% comm.  

It's all about the guarantor on the lease, experience in that chosen industry, a track record of success, liquidity and net worth of the guarantor, and how easily attachable the assets are if something goes wrong.For instance I would never front money for tenant improvements on a business that is not a proven performer.

Could the house be acquired for less, that would not only improve the return on cash, but also build equity into the deal.In addition to the cash on cash return (and we could possibly nudge the rent up a bit to make it more attractive), there are definitely other ways we can increase the upside for our investor as I expect my financial position to improve drastically over the next 6-24 months.  

Sure they may handle snow removal, lawn care, etc, but be careful about allowing them to make capital improvements to the property as they may be able to claim an equity interest in the property even if they do not exercise the option to purchase.

I am interested in joint-ventures as well.

We reached out to a pm to help us do some preliminary work before we flew up for our walk-through, he was really great in getting us up to speed on the market & showing us improvements he had done on other properties to increase rents.  

We have given them the ability to treat the place like their home, and in turn they have taken care of the property and improved it.I know this is slightly off topic, but felt like it was worth while to share.
