Acquired 5 Properties and want to talk strategy with BP

Hello BP. I took the the plunge again... I just acquired 5 properties in Baltimore and want to talk strategy on how the BP community would approach this project. 


NOTE: Catch/Caveat I need to get $55K of my cash back in less than 40 Day to avoid some penalties

Option 1. Take'em all on at once with Hard Money Loan?

Option 2. Take on 2 or 3 properties with Hard Money for construction loan, Refinance into conventional, pull cash out and use the money to complete the other 2

Option 3. Sell them all as an Investor Package for $250K

Option 4. Your Thoughts 

Looking for interested serious investors also.

Here are the details.....

**********************************************
4 of the 5 properties are owned outright the 5th property is under seller financing

We have four of the 5 appraisals completed. The properties are in the John Hopkins area and there is a lot of reno going on in the area with John Hopkins and Habitat For Humanity.

Package Purchase Price: $120K
Combined Construction: $385 (estimating high)
Combined Estimated ARV: $850K - $1.1M

1. Property 1 : Seller Financing (Converting to 2 -Family as a hold for $2300)

Appraisal Results Pending
As-IS $35-45K (TBD)
