Primary resident for now. It's a condo. Maybe flip to an investment in 8 years when I upgrade to a SFH. It's so expensive for a SFH in Pasadena and could not get a solid price / home. So parking in a condo for now.

Good news is that based on Zillow comps, it should rent out and cover the mortgage / tax / HoA / insurance for now. No cash flow though or covering accruals though.

Seller is selling because they are buying another new build. Yes agent represented on sell side. Thanks for the feedback!

Hello,

I know this is not really investment related, but I will be closing on a primary residence property. The seller is asking for a “lease back” option for a few weeks since they need to find a place. Is this common? Any risk especially with COVID eviction moratorium? 

Appreciate any experience or inputs here. I’m in Los Angeles area and my biggest fear is closing on this home and now have nightmares trying to boot someone. This property will be in the Pasadena, CA area.
