I'm glad to connect further with additional details if you are interested.

If I find a property that I am interested in, contact the broker for more information or additional details...What's next? 

I'm in Tampa and, in addition to financing homes, we've built our share of ground-up spec homes here in the Bay Area.

I have no prior experience in real estate, however, am fortunately enough to have access to sources of income besides a fixed job salary that provides me additional CF and a long-term safety net.

If landlord pays water/sewer, and with more occupants you know you will see higher water usage, think you could make a logical case for some additional rent or per person fee to cover that. 

Additionally, the macroeconomics here has seen significant growth - population and jobs are both growing, and major companies started moving and developing here (Intel, Google, Amazon, FB, etc).

An additional benefit of a detailed engineering-based Cost Segregation Study is that it can increase potential insurance premium savings as well as provide support for the property tax appeals process.

I’m an OOS investor and I’m sending my realtor over to inspect these properties to see if either one would be a solid addition to my portfolio.

Additionally, I have an LLC established and currently hold a business credit card with a limit of $15,000, as well as two personal cards for $4,000 and 3500.I have before and after pictures of my fix and flip, if needed.Any advice or insights on potential funding sources or strategies would be greatly appreciated!

But some advice already said.1) Learn how to reduce your expenses2) Pay every month like you would be a tenant 3) Find other ways to make additional money - does it have a guarge, maybe rent that out for extra cash flow?
