This San Francisco control freak aspires to do some more investing and value-add development projects when I learn how to delegate more of my rental arbitrage business...In 4 years since I walked away from corporate America, I have built a successful furnished rental arbitrage business with 30+ units from San Francisco to San Jose, both short-term and long-term rentals.

I just decided to get started and last May I bought my first two properties, I would like to share a bit more about the first one to get some advice.The property is in the suburbs of Chicago, near Oak Park:- Purchase price: $165k as-is- Rehab budget: $75k- Closing and loan cost: ~$8k- Down payment: $46kThe appraisal as-is came back at $165k, and after renovation, the appraisal is $293k.To finance the deal I used the Finance of America acquisition & rehab line of credit at 9.24% with a loan of $118k initial and then rehab holdback of $77k to fund the renovation. 

I made a test payment on the GA DOL website to see if I can get a linked receipt, but the email receipt is just a generic email- it doesn’t tie the payment to my llc or lien number.A side vent: I’m refinancing with Finance of America, with whom I’ve closed over half a dozen refis in four years without much trouble.
