After a bit more research, I actually think renting a place will get me started faster and earn some experience doing Airbnb with a little less risk involved.Obviously I still need to be concerned about not violating a lease agreement by doing so and I would likely live on the property and lot or all the time.Ownership is still the ultimate goal, but this looks a faster party to self driven income.

We do charge a pet fee, and it has helped with any extra costs a pet guest has incurred. 

Also, let me know if you’re ever exploring partnerships or raising funds for a deal—I believe in combining efforts to scale faster and smarter.”

As I expressed on the phone and I have already spoken with Rick as well, I am confident that we have the inventory that meets your needs to build out your portfolio in a faster time frame.  

What @Mackaylee Beach said....at least have this guy fill out an application and check his background (and charge accordingly).

Sorry you are dealing with that, it sounds awful.My guess is most attorneys are going to charge hourly on something like this unless you are suing the HOA for damages in which case they may take a contingency fee.

Rich Young, Loughlin, Crest, etc.Commercial brokers typically do not charge fees for tenant/buyer representation but find a way to take their fees out of the deal.

They usually have a step down on that penalty like 3% year one, 2% year two, 1% year three and so on and so forth.So if you are buying a deal with the intention of rapidly increasing it's value in less than 24 months in order to refinance it and pull your cash out, you might want to go with a credit union for the acquisition financing because FCUs are barred from charging pre payment penalties.I could talk about this for hours about all the nuances but my fingers don't type that fast lol

Since the buyer is not able to get bank financing, you are charging a few % points higher.So your $289k house might sell for 320k at 9.9% for 30 years.

And, if feasible, charge for parking!
