I'm trying to think down the road if I charged a tenant a late fee and they got the bug to sue me and after digging around they find that my transaction history is peppered with exceptions. 

If you flip the cost is very high compared to how long you have the property, but if you do a lot of transactions you should ask your title company for discounts. 

Hi @Jason Burr,Installment sale transactions often referred to as Seller Carried Back Notes or Seller Financing can be a very effective way to help the seller get out of their property and spread taxable gain over the term of the note (depreciation recapture would be taxable in the year of sale, capital gains would be deferred over the term of the note).However, you might get pushed back from the seller because it does trigger their taxable gain and they may not wish to do so.

My company could handle your transactions.  

Over here, at least, most rental homes are sold turnkey with all furniture and furnishings included but since they are personal property, they have no value as far as the real estate transaction is concerned.  

So you have to just plan ahead as best you can, be clear with all parties involved about the transaction and expectations, and work in good faith.Tenants will be responsible for all maintenance, care, and cleaning of the property so that everything is in good working order. 

I have offered to have the bank print out the relevant transactions on their letterhead and provide a notarized statement from me that I have been and will be making all payments but it seems like they just won't pick their head out of the sand.Frank Chin...that sounds ridiculous.  

Leads for what type of transaction?

The one bullet point non-detailed summary of who is likely to end up on one of those financial, mortgage, and real estate type crimes - to include non-felonies.In terms of timing, I just pulled a random file up from a closed transaction in Oakland, and the database checks were run 5 days after I submitted the file as a matter of course with no particular rush request or anything, which tells me that if it was going to be an issue then this borrower would have known in time for their earnest money to be protected by the loan contingency, but after they've spent a grand on appraisal and inspection.When someone volunteers that they are concerned about mysterious government watch lists, we run that check at the preapproval stage.
