I would like the option of paying cash for a property Where financing is not immediately available.To build strong networks in the industry: the more diversified the better.To practice cultivating and evaluating deals.To hone my negotiation skills.I learn best by doing, so I am hoping to be of service to someone who already has their feet in wholesaling, and is living near the San Francisco bay Area.

First step to success, getting out of our own way.

Contributions into new entities after completion of a 1031 is a fairly common practice in the world of partnerships and mergers.  

They still have to go to go through the steps (Which is why they wanted you to sign something).2) How much their insurance pays is irrelevant.

The 12x20 addition is sunken, with one step down.

I believe the states are going to step in and shut down the practice.  

Sounds shady to me, but thats because I havent seen it and I think it practically begs them to drag the job out. 

After a year, if it has not been paid back, then you can go through the steps of foreclosing and cleaning up the title.Have you purchased tax deeds or liens?

We are also motivated in doing this so we can take my husbands father and step mom out of the loan because they co-signed for us when we originally purchased the house. 

Checking for leaks and the number of residents is a more practical first step.
