Quote from @Mark Conrad: You definitely want professional help before buying in US.

I would definitely start off renting most units as LTR and slowly renovate and furnish units to do MTR, having a mix of both. 

Since the property has vacancies, a buyer might discount for lease-up risk, so that’s something to factor in.I owned a multi-use property in IL that is definitely different than what you're looking at.

Quote from @Christina Venegas: Quote from @Dominic Mazzarella: Quote from @Christina Venegas: is it possible to do HELOC on a primary home that was purchased 6 months ago with 5% of down payment, the property was $145k and it was appraised at that time for $160k. i need advice from investors and lenders, if anybody knows some lenders that could help me I would really appreciate it, thanks for taking your time to respondIt’s definitely possible to get a HELOC on a primary home, but most lenders have a seasoning periods which are typically 6-12 months after purchase before they’ll allow it.

I will definitely need help with this one, because it is currently landlocked and will need either a road and crossing over the river, or it will need deeded property access through a 3rd party.
