Somewhere in the middle is likely your best bet for a 20 year timeline.I have almost 50 units here myself and that's about what my portfolio is cash flowing at this point combined LTV is around 65% as loans have gotten paid down and values have went up.

That will not get you to 100k as at best you could go DSCR and get 80% (if numbers even work).Regarding property not complete, if you have paid cash to date, your best bet would be to get a hard money loan for $100k to complete the renovations and pay off some debt and then refinance once its completed.

If it's more complicated eviction.com may be your best bet to use they are pretty cost effective.

However, it's a safe bet that these respective areas will continue to appreciate steadily for the reasons noted.

Big players like Ford, GM, and even tech companies are betting on Detroit.

I have a program nationwide that does NOT require GC to sign anything, only provide proof of 3 C/O's (certificate of occupancy) over the last year I.e. built received occupancy permission now unit is on market or habitable.  700+ FICO I can get you 80%LTC loan to cost on the project on ground up construction for 1-4 units. 

You bet!

Quote from @Antoine Black: I have a house that free and clear and I'm trying to tap in the equity can any one help  Hey Antoine, As Mike stated, your best bet is a local credit union.

Your best bet is doing exactly what you are doing here.

We do want to settle in a little bit here while continuing to do our homework, but hope to get into something in the next 6-12 months.With the way interest rates are looking now and what little I see on public listings, I think a smaller multi-family that needs a little rehab would be the best bet.
