I’m interested in giving my son a house downpayment gift via setting up a trust for him to use. How would the title be stated to keep the trust dollar downpayment investment protected from any future divorce settleme...

They have a nice package of loan options, but I'm always cautious when working with someone new.

If that isn’t an option I would reach out to the regional manager or someone higher up (you can look at the property management company employees on linked in to find out who is in upper management) and give them the option to make things right with you, or inform them that you’ll be taking civil action.

In what areas or aspects did the legislation on the lease option niche changed in the last year?

Any advice on financing options here ? 

My question is, we are just starting out and looking for ALL options to get started with our first rental property. 

Boostly also encompasses a weekly podcast and a Facebook community that you can join to exchange ideas with other property owners.Other options include using bigger and better Channel managers like RentalsUnited https://rentalsunited.com/Or NextPax https://nextpax.com/channel-manager/integrations/channel-par...The more viability the better helps you get through the slower season. 

It sounds like you haven't defined a "deal that works" or looked at enough creative options in California yet. 

The delayed financing option bases value on the appraised value not the purchase price, but you can only borrow price plus cost which still results in same concerns you have about that option.

We are looking for options to help continue portfolio growth.Thanks
