@Samuel Carmichael There are many options to structure this. 

Hey @Samuel Barton!

@Samuel Lynch I am currently stationed in Misawa, Japan!

@Samuel Bavido  projects of this scope will have to be public record at the planning departments of the counties.. there will be a way to figure out where they are going ...

@Samuel Bavido Great advice, this example is just an exercise but I may keep an eye on it for a possible purchase in the future (depending on the repairs like you stated).  

@Samuel Lynch I used them to get my license.  

Hey @Samuel BavidoWelcome to BP!

Samuel Bavido Why don't you want to explore selling it?

@Samuel Cervantez We borrowed on the equity of our primary home to invest.

Samuel, My first property i used a home Equity loan, made the closing simple and fast. the only downside i can think of is you are adding dept to what ever property you are taking the equity loan from ( but there are good sides to that too, in legal situations, not showing a lot of equity in a property you own). you would still need to calculate those payments in the property you are purchasing and make sure you make money on it. using Equity is a good way to get started.
