My advice would be to speak with an attorney and discuss if you can form a partnership with your relative and create a legal situation to achieve your goals.If that is not the case, or if there is not enough time, then Jon's suggestion of a "Deed in Lieu" might be your best option.You made the mistake of jumping into a deal without securing your back end financing.

State fees are unavoidable no matter how anyone files their entities, and S&H must be charged to cover the costs for multiple UPS shipments (for tracking since these are legal docs) between MyCorp, the customer, and the state.For more detail on what *is* included at no charge (quite a bit): I posted a classified in here last week that gives the specifics and the link & phone# for more info.

Plan on getting to know legal aide attorneys.

Mike, those are the conflicts against my moral perspective to begin with; potential legality issues and my own financial situation.

YOur best advice on how to structure this is from your attorney, not from the opinions of others on an open forum, myself included.Good luck to you.By the way, grouping funds from a few individuals to create a larger purchasing power is a great startegy when used legally and properly, such as with an LLC and O agreement.
