I'm sure, but I still have no idea who they are lol...

Depends on your connections. For me, I've been getting free legal advice & work from my business partner, who is also a friend of mine (inside & outside of RE). I'd say building rapport with local attorneys would help decrease costs.

I've looked into this here in L.A. but have passed on. That said, if there is a strong demand one should definitely consider it as part of their strategy.

Very possible assessor's office got it wrong. They are prone to human error.

I consider it as both :)

So sorry to hear! You do have every right to pursue a legal claim against the seller's & seller's realtor(s). You don't have to sue them in order to pursue a legal claim.

Focusing solely on appreciation is highly speculative. Not necessarily a bad thing if you're into that kind of stuff. Appreciation is just one aspect, albeit an important one.

Good to know. Thank you for sharing this.

Nearly all investors would like to see someone that has some skin in the game. Since you're not going to be putting up the money yourself, it helps to explain to potential investors what value you'll be bringing to the table. Even posting it here in full detail would be good for other community members to see.
