I've been apart of transactions where the deal was structured by offering the seller a percentage of the difference between the original purchase price and the new value at refi.

Prohibited Transactions: Avoid transactions with "disqualified persons" (yourself, family, etc.).Alternatively, consider leveraging a HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) to access capital for investments.

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.

The listing showed a price and transaction history for the home.

They 30 year track record firm  may now be using social media to pitch their deals right alongside and perhaps even pursue the same transactions as the new age syndicators but the two groups are likely pursuing entirely different LP investors.

Or you can look at transactional funding, but you'd likely spend more on marketing as the need for double closings are less than fix and flip deals.Again, all the best to you on your journey!

• Off-Market Sales: Were any off-market transactions missed?

Will reduce transactional waste significantly. without transactional waste I would be out of bizzness LOL

Equity in C/D located real estate is often merely paper equity...equity represented in an appraisal report that is less likely to materialize in an arms length transaction. 

Newsom signed that order post-LA fires making it illegal to increase rent beyond 10% in those areas impacted by the fires (one source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/01/25/la-county... )If I understand you correctly, you're saying that PriceLabs is behind the increase in rates for your properties, taking them to either 10% or beyond of an increase which I'm sure is something someone on their board or engineers must be aware of- as an issue.
