Some people may say you shouldn't focus too much on how you are perceived but I do believe that first impressions are important.

I was talking from a 50,000 foot view, but I'd be happy to be granular, because I certainly don't want anyone to perceive what I do as predatory (again, @Bill Gulley, you can address me directly rather than passive aggressively).

It's not easy just to leave your 6-figure job, which is perceived as secured, and dive into the unknown, and this is 2009 we're talking about. 

I have a family member who is interested in selling another family member a portion of their holdings in a wrap scenario with what I perceive to be fair terms on properties the Seller owns outright.

Green would be the more profitable perceived areas (those with the lower R2P ratios and the red would be the opposite. 

So, all that doesn't go out the window because someone got a better deal, banks don't buy perceived equities or lend on them.The rule is, within the first year, a transaction is valued at the appraised value or the price, whichever is less, after one year, it is the appraised value.

Just because you perceive something doesn't make it true...Good luck, you can do this.

Many gurus teach to have a separate lease agreement and option agreement  and call the down payment " option consideration", but I can tell you from experience that if the tenant buyer wants to fight you in court, the perceived benefits of structuring it this way are out the window.

Any perceived violation has to be accommodated since it is disability related.

As & Bs are perceived to contain less risk and a better tenant base, and cap rates are lower, which will also drop the returns on the property.Hope that helpsGino
