Manny Pichardo Excellent! 

What I would do if I were in your shoes is do a HELOC for as much as the bank would give me since it is a revolving line and excellent way to grow your business.

Lots to learn, but this site is an excellent resource.

All of the other homes on the street sell for over 400k, and the house is on one of the best lots on the street, with an excellent yard.

Situated within driving distance of Orance County and San Diego County where prices are 50% more, and having excellent schools, we have a super strong rental market.

I am very capable in excel, having manually and mentally run the numbers of multifamily units listed online I have found that none of them come close to meeting the 1% rule.

I've also listened to some excellent books that have also helped me build a foundation for my upcoming adventure.

Hi James  Well... personally I would put all the numbers in excel and figure out the returns that way.  

Not sure and nervous about this.My credit score is in high 750+ with excellent credit history. 

I verbally record the addresses in my phone, have my daughter input them into excel (doesn't take long) then I use PropertyRadar (@Sean OToole's company), and look up details such as mailing address and when the house was purchased/refi'd.
