I ask because general principles of contract law generally do NOT prevail over regulatory constructs arising out of specific enabling legislation.

I am specifically interested in SFR value add opportunities, as well as, 2-4 unit properties.

Many folks these days are opting not to work on Subto's as that strategy has become commoditized and marketed by big industry gurus which now in turn has led to the lenders taking notice and starting to call the notes due, since a subto scenario is a technical default, unless there was a formal assumption done. 

But I know how hard that can be for us Californians :-)Happy to help more or send some Detroit specific resources if you'd like.

I have around $500K to invest and also have the opportunity to pool additional funds from investors, totaling approximately $1 million.Considering the complexities and governmental regulations in New Jersey, I'm struggling to make a decision.

C/E shop, I’m with Samson and have been very happy, just a word of caution, it’s gonna run about 2k-3k a year just to pay for all your subscribers, mls, sentry etc, I suspect these will be going up substantially as a result of the agents leaving the industry, meaning the need to get more from the remaining, if you get your license make sure you have a use for it, like you will either have a decent client base and/or you are doing your own deals & will save money that way.

Finding this quite frustrating, trying to do the right thing and its difficultWhere are you specifically stuck?

We rehabbed our first property and have connections so we aren't afraid of a fixer-upper.We understand that buying through a wholesaler can be risky because there are no official requirements, regulations, or hand-holding.

-negotiate if you can and always remember this may be the most important step-due diligence, make sure zoning regulations don't cause you any problems in the future-purchase agreement - this outlines the terms of the sale, make sure you have a lawyer review this-financing - if they are owner financing that is great, if not try to have this secured before signing a contract-closing - commercial property closing is much simpler and has less documents than a residential closingHope this helps.
