A few asset protection seminars that I've attended mentioned using your entity name would be the best bet to use on contracts, so I decided to form an entity.

Just speak to your tenants and come to an agreement would be my best bet.

Also not to bet on appreciation but I feel Winooski has been on a SLOW but steady upward climb in regards to home value and rents which personally I would take over a market that swings both ways.Best of luckGrant

I bet the landlord must have some idea of who has paid a deposit.

I bet those guys you talked to have deep pockets.  

And more often than not its an older person, retiring who wants the steady check, doesnt need all the cash at once and is getting out of the investing game.look for grandma with a decaying apt building. shes your best bet.

Nope there is no way to assign...banks will never allow that..Your only bet is, to get hard money, actually close on the deal, and flip it an investor, look for a company that does transitional funding...these companies will want to see your buyers proof they can close, they are going to want to see executed contract on both sides.

I suggest that you consider the first phase of your real estate investing career working on how much you can save.I'll bet you do really well.

I'm willing to bet Mr.

When the betting is one sided, the odds change to attract the bets on the other side.
