We were trying to buy a loan that was in default and the current lender was emotionally attached and has it listed for over $2M when comps are $1.5M. 

I currently have $107K pulled from mine and of that used to purchase two 2 properties.

Im currently conducting my due diligence for this lender to see if I want to use them for my next deal. 

This is prime real estate, and is just about the last piece of land in this area.I have begun to develop a commercial property that I own with contractor garages, which is the extent of my experience in this space.I'm trying to get a sense of how to structure something like this, with using LP's, and also partnering with a builder, and carving something out in that regard.Does anyone have recommendations on who is currently working in this space and could provide some insight?

STR's are currently not allowed unless you occupy the property.

Quote from @Samuel Hudson: Hello friends I am new the market and recently bought a home in Weehawken 6 months backs .Its a three family home and we are currently doing renovations Right now.The rent leveling board told me that two units would have to follow a rent of 1650 for unit 1 which has three bedrooms and another unknown amount for unit 2 which they don’t have the information for .The previous seller I purchased the property from bought it as a tax lien .He has kept the property vacant for two years with no tenants before selling it to me .However ,the previous Owner he bought it from must have had tenants .I am putting in a lot of money into renovations and want some clarity on the situation I am in .The property has been vacant for the two years and currently still is as we are doing renovation .It would be really appreciated if anyone can assist me on what information needs to be provided by from the previous seller for me to be able to set the rent based on the market value .Thank you . 

Use the 20K as a down payment on the next house hack and don't touch your current properties equity.

Currently have three more in progress right now in both North Carolina and South Carolina. 

A great way to get started if you currently have a W2 job is to buy a house hack like a duplex or a fourplex where you can move into one of the units and continue to rent/manage the other units.

Currently, I am looking at Hemlame for local, I tried to use them for an out-of-state investment property, but the cost with an agent would end up far greater than a full-service property manager.The dream option would combine all accounting, bill pay, rent collection, provide eviction services, and maintenance coordination outside of normal hours.
