Good deal for both parties I think.Not that this fixes the vacancy problem, but it's a management solution in a box (pun intended).

It's not just MO, but most states are set up with the same Work Comp laws.Besides making it mandatory for each to carry their own insurance, here are a few solutions some of my clients use,1)  Have the 1 man show purchase a work comp policy with "if any" payroll and exclude themselves from the policy.

or just put some lipstick on it and rent it..... last time I bought a property i was all goody goody as well as paranoid and got a mold inspection which now has that property on the hazmat list till i shell out some 20k to remediate it (which mostly seems to consist of guys wearing cosmonaut suits, just like in Ebola land, spraying a cleaning solution, and billing $100 an hour each.....- not to say that mold remediation isn't important, but maybe I could have gotten rid of some of it myself before calling in the mold specialists.) 

So our solution is to have him put 100% of the down payment down into the LLC. 50% would be his down payment and 50% would be a loan (no interest) for my down payment.

Its a tree in a forest.  

,Congrats on being persistent and finding a solution!
