😎I've never required my SF buyers to get lender's insurance in my dozen or so sales, but I made sure to use a REC, not a Note and DofT. 

They are monitoring what I do with the money, in the sense that they’re withholding a certain percentage of funds and requiring me to have inspections done, etc., as a way of ensuring that I put it towards a renovation and not just walk away with it.

I am curious what all the shady stuff these investors are doing to require such intricate setups.

Sounds like you are trying to do a Lease with Option to Purchase.This requires 3 separate documents:1) Lease2) Option Contract3) Purchase contract triggered when tenant enacts Option Contract.National statistics show that around 65% of Lease-Options fail.

Average cost where we are now is like $5000 for set up, and you may not need a full foundation depending on the manufacturer requirements and what the lender requires.

Hello, my question is in regards to Texas Franchise Tax: I formed my LLC in 2023, as a Series LLS (4 properties), Is all rent received from the 4 rentals added together and submitted as one business income or is it broke out individually and filed by each rental?

Unfortunately, factors like a hardening property market, inflation, labor shortages, increased building costs, and an increase in claims frequency and severity have caused our carriers to require increases to both rates and coverage amount minimums to keep up with these market conditions.

For example, a $1 million policy could have an initial commission of $50,000 to $100,000, significantly impacting the policy's cash value in the early years.Limited Access to Capital: Accessing the cash value requires taking out a policy loan, which accrues interest, typically at a rate of 5-8%.
