Additional lights can add a lot at night but become a nuisance to tenants and neighbors.

If I create and fund an LLC to lend 100% to me to buy real estate and light renovate and rent it out.

I have since negotiated the down payment down to 15% at the same low interest rate so barring any major storm damage in the next couple of years I should have a good equity position once the light rehab is complete and won’t have an issue refinancing out.

I purchased 2 commercial zoned 'light industrial' properties in 2023.

Purchase existing cashflow retail centers that need light cap ex and rental increases.

~we are going to buy a duplex together and use my equity in a heloc for down payment as well as save another 20k per couple over next year ~wife and I (plus 1 kid)  will move to one side, His family to the other (2kids)~going to turn my house to a rental, with the eventual goal to turn my half of the duplex to rental as well (goal is 50 doors by 50 years old I’m 31)~Market is a bit light, i am considering and open to building duplex.

And a special thanks to @Sheryl Griffin for shedding a bit of light on this vendor.

Just sitting at a red light and you can smell it.  

(ball park that would include framing/drywall, electrical/recessed lights, flooring, etc.)

He said that he was guilty and got off lightly.
