Gap funding or junior position funding is highly risky. your team has no real money in the deal..

All of that said, nothing you mentioned sounds like you are in a position to evict anyone.

Equity position How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Hey @Brett Jurgens,Great position to be in! 

HELOCThis takes either first or second position (depends on whether you have a mortgage) and is a variable rate line of credit.

But I also realize many people choose the direction of Appreciation first.In my hometown market (not Pittsburgh, but central NJ area), few small to mid size multi family properties could come close to cash flowing positively.

Consider starting with a smaller, more affordable multifamily to keep your mortgage low and cash flow positive—even if it’s not your dream property.

Per CoreLogic, only 1.8% of all mortgaged homes are in a negative equity position, and the average homeowner across the US has $311,000 in equity.If anyone has contradictory data, please share.

Rules for contractors NEVER use your money to fund a customers project ( unless you hold first lien position and charge interest )If the money stops , the work stops .Put everything in writing .

With your equity and clear goals, you’re well-positioned to scale—best of luck!
