I have a couple of questions about ownership structure and a couple about possible cash out finance options for my existing properties.

Unfortunately we have discovered that the guests of a couple of tenants were not being upstanding citizens and got themselves in trouble with the law.

Hi, I am Canadian, and I am not a registered agent, but interested in seller finance, so my question is can I talk to sellers directly or I have to do this through an agent that represents me? 

From what I've read, all I need to do is fill out a Quitclaim Deed, sign in the presence of a notary, and record it with the county clerk where the property is located.

You would only have to recapture depreciation.If you have more than $250K of gain ($500K if married) then you could do the same thing and take the $250K tax free. 

Problem Solving for SellersIn any market, sellers often have problems that need solving.

You can pull apartment rents from Zillow to look at rents in an area. 

If the tenant's credit is terrible, you won't have the leverage to hold them accountable.

I put in an offer in a house after talk to the sellers agent she set the terms, we accepted all the terms them she add that the “seller” would not pay for the buyer commission (My wife is my agent, somehow she found out that).She asked for full price, no inspection, no contingencies?
