I’m not sure what forms or agreements he is talking about but in KC if you are NOT the home owner, you must have an attorney appear in court even if you have a Power of Attorney.

You could if he lived in the home as well.

ADUs or carriage houses are well supported in adjacent downtown neighborhoods but no one is building and selling new construction homes the comparable will be very limited. the appraisal will be difficult. it's just a lot.

If my margins come at the expense of my service providers then I've failed as a business owner.

Hello,  I've been putting offers in on for my first rental property (single family homes out of an HOA).

The owner's daughter posted a " presale" ad about the property.    

The house is easily worth $305,000 and rents would be about $2,200 so at $220,000 it would be a great rental to add to our portfolio BUT, the contract says the buyer has to lease back to the original owner for 30 days and it will be sold sight unseen.

My husband and I have an opportunity to purchase a single-family rental portfolio in our out-of-state investing market that is owner-financed.

The market for buyers on QCD is going to be smaller so you are limiting your market with a QCD but we buy/sell homes all the time via QCD just need to find the right parties.  

We own a home in a highly occupied area, near large companies and hospitals.
