I don't know what his minimum liquidity requirements are to join.

@Brady Bitter these funds have margin requirements. 

Any recommendations for starting strong would be appreciated. 

This is prime real estate, and is just about the last piece of land in this area.I have begun to develop a commercial property that I own with contractor garages, which is the extent of my experience in this space.I'm trying to get a sense of how to structure something like this, with using LP's, and also partnering with a builder, and carving something out in that regard.Does anyone have recommendations on who is currently working in this space and could provide some insight?

Water is a lienable utility here so I would minimize putting the bill in the tenant's hands unless you're certain that it will be paid.If you need a plumber in the Wilkes-Barre area I'd recommend Billy Smith of No B.S.

Can anyone recommend a HELOC lender for a SFH investment property in Los Angeles, CA?

.  --- From the zoning code it says, an RM-2 zoned lot can have "1 unit per 2,500 sf. of lot area"If you don't meet that lot size requirement you'll need to make a request for a variance, then post notice about the desired change in front of the building.

I suspect without the 2 pts I would be at ~6.625% to 6.75%.What I recommend most is accurate, conservative underwriting.  

On the buildings that require plowing, we have a great vendor who charges far less than what you are paying.

Nothing illegal about doing that, but if caught, the lender may call the loan due and if you don't correct the situation or pay the loan off, they willstart mortgage foreclosure.3) You could also go the HELOC route to tap the equity in the home, but the 12-month owner-occupancy will also apply AND the interest rate on the HELOC will fluctuate with the Fed Fund Rate.4) You could do a cashout refi as an investment property, but that will be at an interest rate 0.5-1% higher than owner-occupied rate.Suggest you meet with 2-3 lenders to explore your options about the above.Once you have access to funds, recommend you buy a 2-4 unit with 20-25% down. - You can buy owner-occupied, live in one unit, and fix up and rent the other unit(s).- If you're handy, recommend buying a property in the worst condition you can tolerate.
