Being 100% leveraged isn't a good thing.

Leverage it and learn.

Since you’re already in the LTR space and looking to grow, have you considered leveraging your commercial expertise to explore multifamily properties?

There are plenty other resources but the first is to educate

Quote from @Jonathan Chan: I used my Mom's to help her retire by becoming a lender on real estate projects, but curious to see how others are leveraging their SDIRA.  

Make sure you know the value the ADU will add to the property before building the ADU. 2) the financing on an ADU is typically far worse than for initial investment property acquisition or is often not leveraged by the ADU (HELOC, cash out refi, etc).

Just wondering how many folks would really use this that are like I said not really educated on how title and escrow works and I find East coast folks to be highly reliant on closing attornies and have very little knowledge of title and escrow functions..

Start by leveraging your skills to identify undervalued properties, perform cost-efficient renovations, and build sweat equity.

I am reading a bunch of real estate investing books , talking to realtors & loan officers, and trying to educate myself best I can.I'm also looking to expand my network within the real estate investing community, and I believe this is a great opportunity to connect.

There’s no single right answer to every situation, but the more you educate yourself and build your network, the more confident you'll become.Lastly, don’t hesitate to ask questions here, no matter how small they seem.
