Also I am assuming from the title of the post that if you were to sell the property you would be doing a 1031 to defer the taxes?  

My real estate business runs without me.

No lender will lend on a deal that doesn’t make sense.4) After the appraisal comes back you will get a document that outlines the amount to be borrowed and all fees that will be relating to the loan (I would suggest to ask for an example of this document when you are searching for an HML so you will know what fees are going to show up).5) Close the loan at a title company of your choice.6) Begin work and make draws on any repair balance.

Here's what I'd do: Create a Word Document or Google Document Titled "DRAFT: Life Vision" do not use a template, do not pay some guru for this.

It's basically built on top of WordPress core and they made it simple and easy to navigate.Where in wordpress, you have to get some plugins (some are also monthly paid) to achieve the same kind of functionality.SEO is not just about having a good hosting/platform and features, it's about utilizing the features in a way so your brand has visibility and people that come into your website gets proper value of their time spent.Here's a table comparison for you that I wrote earlierNow whether you have a carrot or a wordpress site, for SEO, you will need:- Website Credibility (Personalisation)- On Page SEO (Keywords, Titles, Meta Tags, Description, Image ALT Tags & Optimization etc)- Social Media Presence (Regular Posts/Videos and Engaging with your audience)- Monthly Content Publishing (Regular Blogs & Location Pages)- Monthly OFF Page SEO (Citations, Backlinks)Now if you consider the cost, end of the day it's quite same for both the platforms.But if you are starting fresh, I see no point of having their 180$ plan, you can continue with 89$/month plan from carrot and assign someone in your team to put regular blog posts and update the location pages.Or if you want to use WordPress and get someone setup the website and do regular content updates for you, then It can take 3-6 months to start seeing visible growth in organic traffic if all the things mentioned above are taken care of.

Most DSCR lenders will go up to 75% LTV on the new appraised value with 90 days title seasoning.

Your title, “new to real estate” may offer a key.
