On a positive note we did build a new house to the specifications of a specific tenant. 

I would probably go with a HELOC as you won't have to pay for what you're not using unless you've got a specific property you're going to be buying with that money so you know you won't just take out the loan and sit on it paying interest all the while. 

Specifics on how to start are all appreciated!

Hey everyone,I’ve been diving into Chapter 1 of The Multifamily Millionaire, Volume II: Create Generational Wealth by Investing in Large Multifamily Real Estate by Brandon Turner and Brian Murray, and I wanted to share insights on one of the most important concepts: Crystal Clear Criteria (CCC).When scaling up to larger multifamily investments, having clear and specific criteria is critical for success.

Also, be careful with your lease terms: we specify all tenants, including minors, and state "No Others" specifically.

I specifically want to call out one of their Senior Accounts Associate, Charlotte Cunningham, who helped me through the process on my first purchase as I needed to buy a sizable amount of furniture quickly and she was able to help me make moves quickly...and didn't make me feel bad whatsoever when I pulled back a few items at the last minute I was able to find them cheaper elsewhere.
