Whether your at $0 or $10mm of personal cash to start with.   

We will infill, fix the roads, add lights, add a nice sign, add a fence to the entry, fix water leaks, bill back water by metering each home and raise the rent to market over time What was the outcome?

A one-person show isn’t gonna cut it.

Quote from @Jokari Trueheart: HI, almost 11 months ago I purchased 3 duplexes and I borrowed the funds from my personal residence which I took out a equity agreement for the down payment on the investment property, great idea at the time because I have 10 years to pay it off and theres no payment requirement, but , I learned more about the consequence that it takes a large chunk of my equity the longer I take to pay it back, so my goal was to refi cash out the investment property to pay it back but I don't think theres enough equity yet to pull the full $106k needed, I only borrowed $88k but with the equity percentage for one year i'm paying about $18k in equity on top of the amount I borrowed if I pay it off in year one, so I need this paid off ASAP before it increases more.

If you close with a conventional loan, it will need to be in your personal name.

While an LLC can offer liability protection and tax benefits, it’s not essential for a single property—personal liability insurance and an umbrella policy may suffice for now.

Personally, I would not keep a rental that is not expected to cash flow. 

It can come from a personal investor who will negotiate terms, or potentially a piece of the equity.
