I recommend the "Tenants Guide to Legal Tactics" MA version.

Not a lawyer, but I would assume there could be legal issues if I went in there working, turning it over while they still had rights to be there, especially if they were paying utilities through the 30th.

I actually have a hard copy in my office to read through every now and then when I had concerns of what my landlord was doing and if it was legal.

You can use any contract that is legal in the state.

Michael Spindler, FNMA/FMAC Guidelines are 10 max.

I don't think the guidelines matter if the buyer isn't being financed.

And legal entanglements will follow.If they have a significant portfolio, and this is one small chunk of their money, then it might be something to consider.I have done deals as a lender where the borrower did borrow a small portion of the deal to cover their part.

I assume I need to make sure it's legal and can be counted as a bedroom?

Three added considerations:1. know the laws2. seek legal advice from an attorney3.
