Based off your situation, the best option is to roll the money into a self directed IRA.

They would never look at 99% of the 154 units that are listed on Zillow at any given time.I used this exercise to show how opportunities fall through the cracks & most investors make investment decisions based on bad or irrelevant data.

I also intend to owner occupyI was thinking if there is a small studio or even a garage within the four plex ,that should cover the IRA part and the rent from that studio/garage can be accounted and deposited directly into the IRA account please advisethanksFollowing - I'm based in the Easy Bay.  

Increasing density can often get strong reactions from residents if they disagree with it. 

If you're using a HELOC, I assume this will be based on the value of your primary residence.

You don't have a great case for a tax appeal here because it looks like it was upped based on the renovation and improvements done prior to you buying it.

Obviously if you acquire your deals based on this assumption and ended up operating better than it's more money in your pocket.
