This provides us with another option at the time of disposition as we can sell the company, leaving the existing financing in-place {though some lenders have extended their due-on-sale clause to include changes in control of the owning entity, making this more difficult}

As I am purchasing it for a discount and then re-selling it "possibly'' on the MLS to have a wider buyer base, plus I want to be able to control the sell price.Again, if anyone has a good idea on how to structure this and if I am on the right track, it would be greatly appreciated!!!

All three credit bureaus require it, as a result of the FTC requiring them to implement tighter controls to cut back on identity theft.I would recommend doing the on-site inspection so you get the actual detailed credit information on the applicant.

Take away rent controls & sell the buildings to private enterprise ..... problem solved :)

This way I don't risk the due on sale clause and the buyer is able to control the property.

But I just feel like it might be worth it to have more control over the situation and not be so much at the mercy of contractors.

Get out there and learn who the players are in your area and start talking with them.
