Does a cost seg or bonus depreciation actually help you in any way? 

Originally posted by @Eddie Torres:@Natalie Kolodij Standard or foreign LLCs in California still cost $800 annually unfortunately.  

It costs roughly $100/mo but is well worth the expense.  

Fixed Mortgage does come with closing costs and points upfront which the HELOC does not, except a $95 annual fee. 

Some even offer preferred interest rates as low as 5.75% at no cost to you. 

I am putting in a link to something that may be help, a cost of living comparison calculator (https://www.bankrate.com/real-estate/cost-of-living-calculat...). 

If rates dropped 1-2% on a $600,000 home, it would cost a buyer $3,400 a month.

It was a subsequent post in response to my question that OP made clear it was because the state required deposits to be held separate.  

From there we identify properties that could have some potential and if you are interesting in diving deeper, 1) we do a thorough video walkthrough to give you a realistic look of the property, 2) we give a ballpark estimate of rehab costs (we do 40 a year with our GCs o we will get pretty close), 3) we talk through market rent with our property management team, ARV, and potential highest and best use.Ideally you find great investor agents who know their market really well and have a network of resources to provide you with enough confidence to take reasonable action. 

The easiest way to find and connect with wholesalers is either bigger pockets or by googling "sell my house fast in (town name)" although that may cost them a click for google ads.
