The question is whether to contribute up to another ~30k via mega backdoor (MBD) or to a taxable account.

That was an excellent non-answer to my question, Skyler. hihi :)No they are not all the same. some are only interested in dealing with conventional purchases other are as you say better at handling assignments or double closes, some are commercial specialty, etc....A investor friendly one would be, at least from my point of view, one that understands there may need to be some last minute wheeling, dealing, and adjustment made to close a deal, understand what needs to be done and do not freak out about creative deals.Maybe my understanding or thoughts are wrong but that's what I meant by investor friendlyregards :) 

It seems like everyone is preparing for a big boost.The current growth rate seems feverish but I've seen a lot of houses going up to prepare for the influx of population.If you have any questions, I'm available to answer them.

I have a question for all you Fix & flippers in my area.

I have a follow up question from yesterday's as I continue to build my team in Akron/Canton, OH for STR's.

I am currently working on phase 2; building 2 ADUs.The permits are already in the works but the biggest question is what is the best approach when funding these 2 ADUs BEFORE I have the equity from my home?

If you'd ask this question while still employed I'd say apply the $8500 toward knocking down the debt quicker but since that is not the case I would build up your reserves to about 6 months then begin applying those funds to bring down the debt. 

Question- do I keep the heloc I have and just pay it down or do I get a heloc on the rental property to pay off current heloc and go forward with another property? 

So the questions I have are: 1.

The property tax savings are going to be in the ball park of 40-60%, but to be safe you should double your expected repairs budget when calculating the NOI.If you have any other questions, or want a more in-depth response, I would love to help!
