Do I just pay myself back with a equity loan then start renting out the property while paying off the loan and refinance later?

Some don't like to loan on the land at the beginning, but can later on.

Would that be, for example, if the PM says, "I manage a duplex for John Smith in Turlock," then I call John as a reference, ask John a few questions, and then ask John the address of his duplex so I can later look it up on the county website and verify if he is the owner?

It might be worth checking with Avail if they do an automatic credit report that might ding their credit when the tenant accepts or if it simply gives you the option to later.

SEC will help only much later and only to try and seek jail or financial remedies.You're trying to save the property today?

While more development did happen over the last few years from development projects started in 2021 and 2022 when rates were lower and developers could outlast supply chain issues, the upcoming supply is expected to drop again, as we will discuss later on, with the relatively sharp rise in interest rates that has dried up investment capital due to the fear in the market, sellers opting to hold out on their land and or properties until cap rates and interest rates subside again as is expected in the coming years, as well as banks being cautious to lend on real estate due to this sharp rise putting many projects that were started in 2021 suffer greatly from a 7x increase in rates over the following 40 months that had adjustable rates or 5-year terms which is very common in larger multifamily investing.

Anyway, here I am many years later, a senior myself at 71, and living in Redding, CA, and thinking of doing a senior project. 

I have a BP member client who has purchased two oceanfront units there so far and another client of mine is scheduled to close on her first one later this month. 

Unfortunately, you may not know if you miss something until years later

It went from getting our principal back in the August webinar to our entire principal being at risk a few months later.
