Our lifting costs, because we used steam injection to get this heavy stuff out of the ground, were more like $9 a barrel.I remember seeing many little signs in peoples offices saying "Please, God, let there be another oil boom. 

The most recent moratorium is on the re-injection of waste water.  

I do mean to inject a little realism into your calculations.  

Has anyone been in a transaction with seller financing dealing with this equity injection rule change and found a solution?

Is this figure for down payment alone or total equity injection, including CapEx, etc?

So getting all my money back has been increasingly difficult. also, even using BRRRR it's a slow and steady process imo Buying cheap and having a great rehab team are going to be important for you to get out 100% or close of injection. find some people in your area who are doing BRRRR and you'll find out really fast what's possible and realistic.

If I read you right, it appears your salaries at the NP aren't much and the business showed a loss last year.At any time (typically the worst) your residence, rental property, or life circumstances will require a large injection of cash.

In a market retraction, I'd rather have low to no leverage assets than can be leveraged for good opportunities than many highly levered assets that might require cash injections if a tenant or two goes bad.Hope this helps!

You are asking if you should potentially think of this contribution to your new venture as a loan that and should try to return the money on a proven timetable.The answer to this is that most people that I know would treat this as an investment, and either transfer the money into a new entity, or transfer it to a personal bank account and inject capital into the business on an as-needed basis. 

I mean that on the macro level, when the federal government injects tons of money into the economy, a large portion tends to end up in places like the Bay Area (Silicon valley, VC, stocks) and New York (financial center).
