I also house the signed leases there so that my tenants can have access to them. 

We also have access to a $30k HELOC, fixed 8.5%.The current mortgage is $1600 and exact units in our block are renting for $2600+/mo, but the property doesn't pass the 1% rule.We want to start investing in RE again.  

The software in the lock and on their web site then uses this matching code as a hash to generate guest (and/or long term maintenance or housekeeping) codes based on time/date/duration.It's a really brilliant system, and one of the few that I've found that don't require Internet access or monthly fees.

Maybe try working with an agent who has access to off-market and wholesale deals that you can get for below market value and do a quick rehab.

You'd access the HELOC funds and then lend them to an investor at an agreed-upon rate for an agreed-upon period of time.

Yet accessing the equity is not your goal!

The main areas usually causing problems being means of egress, fire separation for each unit, ceiling heights within each unit, sprinklers throughout all units, accessible unit and required parking. 

Let me explain to you why I chose CA as well as my goals and strategy.For starters, I'm active duty military, and this has given me access to a VA home loan which gives me better leverage to easily purchase a property with zero down.

Multiple tenants reported struggling to access their portals at various times.

Does said person have to pay monthly fees for MLS access for this benefit?
