What this means is that the borrower nor the lender has direct control on the appraisal.

If the entire development is new the builder likely still has control of the HOA until a certain % of units are sold.

Therefore I would look into the legal remedies to the situation, in particular the by-laws controlling noise or your condo's HOA.

I have a 3rd REFI I'll run through lendinghome to see if its really as easy as others have said.Jin, as my 3 deals in 18 mo history said;   1 cash deal with the cash coming from a self directed IRA (actually a solo-401k self directed check book control via advantaira) which is awash with cash from 15 or so rentals inside that vehicle all putting out a net net of $8k/mo.   

@Ryan PaltridgeHey Ryan, i am in the process of puting an offer on a vacant multi family property in ironbound, but my concern is would there be any limitations to how much rent I can ask for by the rent control board?

If you are able and willing to do some of the work yourself, you can save a good deal that will help you control prices but remember, the trade-off is that the project will take longer and increase holding costs or renovation costs.Finally, be willing to use us on BP as a resource. 

I ask because I’m looking to buy an apartment in Oakland, CA to live in at first, but I’d like to rent it out eventually and ideally not have it be subject to rent control.

HOA=no total control of your own property.Hope this helps.

My California rentals broke even or lost some money every month for 30 years, so no ROI.

Can anyone provide their input on Latch access control systems?
