Hi Jonathan, this may be possible, but I'd definitely consult with an attorney who handles SEC and syndication issues first.

Back in those days, I paid an attorney $50,000 to handle the case.

Supposedly they handle lease to own options also is lease to own a good option for a seller?

We are definitely looking for a tax person to "officially" handle these issues come tax time but I was curious how you guys/gals would handle it.

Then my wife and I would get the umbrella insurance to add on top of that.The reason I ask about doing it this way is that her brother has been managing the home and may want to handle finding the landlord insurance himself.

@James York, if you can delay COE, have the existing landlord handle this. 

The pandemic relief payouts have been handled so badly that deserving tenants can't even get through the antiquated systems to apply. 

If needed, she can commute or switch the job, but the current job rocks and her manager is extremely happy.How any of you handled this issue when both are working in two different cities, and one cannot move due to distance or any obligations etc?

I'm also interested in discussions about the rent moratorium and how others have handled it.I've been in Lakeland about a year and a half and the pandemic thwarted any social networking for me.If anyone's interested in a meet-up for coffee, food, or beers let me know.

Also, if your first investment is a disaster it might preclude you from qualifying for a loan.Nothing about investing in real estate is too hard for the average person to have a handle on.
