Would you recomend me buying out my lease, so I can start this process?

Also your permitting process, type or land, grade of land, if underpinning is required will all play a factor into your cost. 

I would love to hear from other more experienced in the field about alternative ways to financing that I should consider besides the HELOC, maybe also hear from investors on how the process of bringing investors onboard works.

We would have preferred to work with them within reason to make it a quicker and easier process.

By identifying the right buyer within our network and streamlining the transaction process, we added value without requiring extensive renovations.

It is just a reality how many PMs have no idea how to process claims and have close to 0 systems to protect assets for business owners. 

We are starting the process of analyzing deals, making a plan and executing on it. 

We are in all of those markets you mentioned and can help streamline the process for you.You can also click on my website link in my bio to schedule a call! 

In the process of analyzing deals, I reached out a property manager for his fees.

My husband actually did this when he became a realtor and the process was very simple.
