I listed them in all the usual places and got a bite- It wasn't what they wanted but are very motivated to get out of these properties.My question is, they want to quit claim the properties to the other investor, how and what form would I use so I can get my assignment fee?

Plus I kind of like the idea of only doing it when they are late, charging all of the extra fees so it stings quite their wallet quite a bit.

I doubt the buyer will have any extra funds to cover the spread in option 1.

i live in ca so i know i would have to foreign file here in ca. im sure it will be an extra expense having a foreign llc but am willing to overlook the extra expenditure if it will ultimately protect my assets BETTER than what a california llc can do...looking forward to some words of wisdom. thanks in advance

If you do this, you can end up spending many many many more hours babysitting a property than the extra cash is worth.

Of course, Fannie/Freddie/HUD are all just govt entities with no profit motive these days, so they're subject to political currents.

The buyer has no extra funds to pull from.

My new plan is to not advertise that they are included, and then charge an extra $25/month if they want one installed.

Nice thing about ETC is the bill pay feature as it allows you to make payments w/ no extra costs for regular processing.

So, if you rent the high dollar retail space for 5 years, you get 15,000 "extra" space.
