And to the topic of unaccredited vs. accredited, unfortunately those working within the federal regulations are accepting only accredited investors, whereas those who are going intrastate are able to take retail investors from within the state that their projects are located.

Fortunately/Unfortunately I did not have this problem when I sold my childhood home. 

Unfortunately, the numbers seem like I won’t be in a positive cash flow situation during the term of the current tenants lease (1 year).  

Unfortunately, many insurance companies require they insure both your primary and rental property.

Unfortunately owner data is private record in Quebec.

I checked out listsource and they unfortunately only had ~110 contacts (and they were expensive, I think, at 65c/lead) for preforeclosure/50-200k homes/lived in for x amount of years.

Unfortunately California is very tenant friendly and there is not much you can do about that.

Under no circumstances do I allow installments on security deposits -that is your security for if/when they default.  

So unfortunately I don't have experience in that area.

Hi everyone and thank you in advance for any advice you may have.I have a situation where I purchase a house 6 month's ago for a family member,my daughter,to move into.I applied for and received permits to do construction repairs to the property.Since the house was purchased by me for a family member,I as the homeowner was able to pull the needed permits.I am not a licensed contractor.The permits were for scope of work/general repairs and minor electrical repairs.In my state of South Carolina if an owner pulls permits on second homes or investment properties,you are not allowed to sell or rent the property for two years.Well do to unforeseen circumstances,illness in family,my daughter can not move in and I will need to list the house for sell.It will cause me some financial problems if I try to keep it.The majority of the repairs have been done but are not complete.I need to sell the house in unfinished as is condition.My question is has anyone dealt with open permits when selling a property.The permits are with the County of Charleston and they have always had a hard nosed attitude about generating revenue.I know the most obvious answer will be to call the building dept. and find out what to do,but just wanted to get a heads up before I do from anyone who may have had a similar experience.Thank you....
