They're essentially paying the wholesaler for doing the leg work to find the deal.

Assuming you've done the math and it is financially best to have them leave, lose the rent, and pay rehab expenses so you can charge a higher rent, just non-renew them.

So adding the ADU isn't somehow making the site ineligible for a STR, the use as MFR is what makes it ineligible. 

A PITA to be sure but this doesn’t address all the possibilities.What if your tenant pays by the month?

Turns out, the appraiser said it would pay off.

Great that you joined the site!

Best to have a month to month lease or one with a start and end date if you want them to leave on a specific date, that lets you move to eviction if they don't pay.

Even if you have to pay a bit more now and have CF decreased, you will get the funds to continue deals and can reposition later. 

Which that benefit alone ends up paying for itself in the long run.

So my question is: if I wanted to save on the recording costs, keep the deed for my records, proactively pay taxes as they're billed (would coordinate with the company I buy the CFD from), then work with the borrower to get the deed recorded under their name once they've paid off the contract--am I putting myself at risk?
