Hello BP Nation!

not much to add other than 80k in Sacramento if its a decent area is lot value.simply use as @Don Konipol states a national title company have them give you a prelim.. and insure you in first position pay tax's from the loan proceeds.check the value yourself.. either a good agent or appraisal if needed.your allowed a certain amount of these non owner occ loans in CA without a license so I would think that is OK as well.Not sure why others have said run.. this is pretty typical HML scenario as Don stated that's the reason they are paying the higher rates...

And you make your real money when  you sell the brokerage to a national company that wants the bodies.. much like being in the wine business on the west coast don't make any money running the Winery you make your money when you sell to the next person.
