To do that, you better know what you're doing, that or just be lucky.If you are to learn finance, the markets, legal aspects, collateral assessments, collections, taxation and mortgage underwriting, strategies, modifications......well, I have to laugh at paying big bucks for any 2,3 week course.

I purchased real estate in an Opportunity Zone a few years ago through a multi-member LLC but didn't realize that the real estate was in an Opportunity Zone at the time.

With over an estimated $300 billion of extremely delinquent debt yet to be liquidated to the secondary market, there is a a lot of opportunity to reposition these loans, keep folks in their homes and make a very nice profit for all involved. 

You may run into issues trying to take a HELOC out on an investment property, and even if you can I doubt you'd want to use it for a down payment for a primary because the rates are much higher.What kind of cash flow would you be generating from your multi once you move out?

More of a short-term solution if you're looking to do a value-add or bridge into longer term financing on the multi within 6-12 months.

I'm just starting out in multi family.

Annoying but a few hundred bucks might do the trick.

I'm wanting to get into Multi Family development in the Houston area and have started to look at potential projects.

But there becomes a point where, hopefully we all get to, money is flowing in far faster and needs to be invested quicker than a multi-year due diligence period can really sustain.  

@Jorge Vazquez I've done a scope on every property I've bought before closing...I'll never buy a property without a scope.To me, a few hundred bucks to potentially save myself a $15-$30k capex (or more) is a no-brainer.
