@Mindy Jensen  I've just never done it where I didn't have complete control.

You control this cash flow through increasing the rent and/or reducing those expenses.

@Kelly DeWinter - love the creativity as well as the practical possibilities.

This will tell you the order in which a project should be done (ie best practices).

That being said, even institutional deals that are accredited investors only have PPMs because its good practice and, as you mentioned above, the lack of one increases one’s exposure.I’ve never heard of any rule that says fewer than 3 investors don’t require a PPM.

However, now that I see that the HOA is the one with most of the “for sale” lots, I’m concerned that they may be setting the “market value” and propping it up and/or they have too much control on what the market value is since they have such a market share.

I called and had the city tell me the unit was under rent control.

You need to know if you are in a rent controlled area if you are renting in CA. 

I currently use Zelle, and want to know the best practices when it comes to handling payments, especially since I have to send my contractor a 1099.

we are using kwikset key control deadbolt locks.
