As you might expect matters around financing, regulation and taxation will be different if you are investing at home.

In WA I have seen ones that the HOA was just for upkeep on property, rules and regulations as well as ones that act more like condos.

First of many we all hope.When it comes to Title companies they're highly regulated on rates here in NJ.

Be sure to provide and have them sign a copy of the rules and regulations - they don't seem very important until they start breaking rules you didn't even think you needed...that will be a fun one...if you plan to increase rents, do it when they are most likely to expect it like as soon as you take over or one year since their last rent increase/ contract.

I don't know what a "Pension Fund Group" is, but Pension Funds are highly regulated.

@David Guzman , first off while some state law might apply, it is my belief that it is a matter federal law, or at least a banking regulation involved.

So they don't wish to be licensed.If a borrower indicates any intention (the key word here is intention) of living in the property or using it as a second or vacation home, private or hard money lenders who have any knowledge of current regulation won't touch it.

My furnace guy called me about this today. I hadn't heard this before. Any furnace installed after May 1, 2013 needs to be at leas...

I am most interested in knowing what would happen if we came under the newer NC condo HOA regulations- What would that mean to us?

As to FannieMae, it's powers are limited to setting lending regulations for participating lenders, they do not have federal regulaing powers like HUD.
