My name is Chris, and I'm a excited REI noob from South Florida and I'm looking forward to gaining and sharing all sorts of knowledge here on BP!

If anyone has any knowledge of this or experience in doing this please share!

@Kyle Ferguson If financing is your issue, network with a successful mortgage broker who can is knowledgeable about the various products available to you in your area.

Then use a recovery agency.

Hi Friends-I'm searching for a lawyer with knowledge of real estate to guide us through our first few houses for guidance to ensure we are covering ourselves well for any liabilities. (1 SFH rental and an airbnb garage apartment in our primary home).

Learn what you can her in BP and in your local REIA or other RE meetup, and put that knowledge use in finding a great deal.Good luck!

He’s super friendly and knowledgeable!

I don’t know all the particulars in this case, but I would assume the tenant has done this before without the owner’s/landlord’s knowledge/consent.

@Bernadeau Charles the banks that make the loans to the LLC don't report them to the credit agencies. 

Reality:  There are others who are there and/or have people 'there', and others who have local knowledge and cash in their pockets.That sort of image is safe, you need to do nothing, it's a dream for now and will remain a good dream as long as you do not do anything.Just for you:Look at something close and ugly, e.g., 236 Alice Dr, Wilits, CA (I found this as I am writing to you here)https://www.google.com/maps/@39.38686,-123.3430735...This in your face, likely 'an ugly situation' all around, but it is there, and you will learn.When I was 20 years old a guy told me, "Look at 100 properties and make no offers until, and then after you have reached 100 make an offer on 101, and on everything you see"To me this suggested learning deeply about an area.Did I write 'harsh words?
