How to Legally Condo your 2,3, or 4 Unit w/o ReZoning?

you could use would look like this:

The Tenants become a Resident Beneficiary of the (nameof Seller) Land Trust that you help them to create for Asset-Protection and Privacy reasons and MORE IMPORTANTLY SELLl the Property to YOU with NO Credit Check, DownPayment (from your Pocket) nor Getting a New Bank Loan!

And for which the tenant Buyer pays you a ‘Buy In’ amount of say 10% or 15% upfront fee that you give to the Seller as security until you Refinance the property in say 2, 3, or 5 years down the road.

If the Tenants or prospective Buyers from Ads you run don’t have all the money to Buy In

(5% to 7.5% each for a 2 Unit, 3.3%-5% for a 3 Unit property, or 2.5% to 3.75% for a 4 Unit)

You can have them sign a Note for Beneficial Interest in the Land Trust to acquire Ownership of their particular unit and/or others Units they wish to purchase an interest in.

The pay out could be spread out say over a 2 or 3 year payment (hence your AD for New Blood could read: 2-3 EZ Payments moves you in).
This is all done Lawfully B/C you have granted them a Beneficial Interest in the Land Trust which owns the home(2,3,or 4 Unit).

The Land Trust “Quasi-Condo” cannot be done for 6 Units or higher B/C it needs to be considered a single family residence by HUD standards.

Tenants could also receive Tax Benefits as (10% minimum) co-Beneficiaries of the Land
Trust with you.

And therefore YOU can earn a higher than Rent amount from them to belong to your Trust and gain ownership of the property in a SAFER way than Lease Option or Contract for Deed.

There is NO cost to you for re-Zoning for the Condo Conversion B/C technically YOU AREN’T CONVERTING, just placing the property into a Land Trust.

(Of COURSE with special Equity Holding Provisions that I can help you Arrange the drafting for your tenant-buyers)

Costs generally run anywhere from .5% to 2.5% of the value of the property to place into a Trusteeship---Have your interested Tenants to foot the bill for you.

The Title to the home will be Protected from Liens(Creditor/State or Federal) and legal issues of any Tenant-Buyer or You and Your Wife!

Also, in case they are worried about QUALIFYING---they can SAFELY assume(take over) your mortgage loan obligation without triggering the Due on Sale clause which forces a loan to be paid immediately!

So the Tenant Buyers Don’t Need a:

-Super large Down-Payment
-No Credit Check
-No Bank Qualifying and
-No New Loan

Nor do you have to pay any Sales Transfer costs/Taxes (atleast NOT UNTIL the Trust Terminates---20 Years Max.!)

The Tenants will now be responsible for the Maintenance, Upkeep, Taxes, Insurance and/or Repairs along with the existing Mortgage loan.

And You will have Unloaded a Landlord Headache for the Seller + created an income stream for the next 2 to 5 years that you will never have get a call in the middle of the night to lift a finger and unplug toilets, replace light bulbs, holes in walls.

Much Success!
