We hold monthly meetings where the following topics may be discussed: getting started, market research, deal analysis, single family investing, multifamily investing, investing in the Bay Area, out-of-state investing, real estate market cycles, fundraising, legal structures, taxes, current trends, etc.

I'm just starting out and I am anxious to put my 1st property under contract.

How and how much I'll get taxed, how long I will have to repay my investment loan, when it'll start going into repayment, am I supposed to have legal documents for my tenants and what not.

What if they have terrible landlord references or a criminal background that includes legally deniable crimes?

Good evening BP, I have a question on what kinds of contingency clauses could be put in a contract as a buyer?

Thanks Joe, This tenant originally tried to purchase the property with a contract sale - to which we prompty said "No".He keeps talking about purchasing the house - we suspect he cannot afford it though.

I do have the house under a purchase contract which expired few days ago and has to be renewed (which the loan officer suggested do it once the closing date is booked).

BP,I just got a home under contract in Tallahassee, and was hoping to get some recommendations of an investor friendly title company.

He (and his bank) are getting me to closing 26 days from start of contract.

Is there any legal or regulatory restriction on me closing all 10 deals?
