Start by networking through local meetups, REIA groups, and online communities like BiggerPockets to connect with experienced investors.

However, the HOA then said "we are still fully opposed to the door".I am working with our RE attorney, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips or experience in this situation. 

I will be able to log the 50% time of business use.

:I had a consultation with Andersons a month ago... his youtube videos are great and a lot of good information... but they have packages... and are VERY VERY expensive... for the same setup as other companies for a lot less.I contacted Royal Legal Solutions as well... packages as well and expensive.I also contacted the Small Business office in Kansas and a couple of local lawyers.So far Mark J K has been the best consultation and fees as very down to earth... but will confirm tomorrow :) 

I am in the HVAC/R business so, although it would be a cakewalk for me - you may have to get heating guy to do it for you.

Since my RE financing investor does the incentive of paying for the property, I want to make sure that my business partner is getting a great ROI in profits, so I want to make sure that money is working for the first investor making a deal with me in the smoothest way possible! 

You rent it for one year and create a successful STR business that shows a trailing 12 month net income of $75,000.  

Online platforms like Zillow, PropStream, and Auction.com are worth exploring, and don’t forget to check out local real estate groups for deals and partnerships.Since you’re in Racine, the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin and Milwaukee REIA are great resources for networking, finding contractors, and learning about funding opportunities.

In terms of deal flow I would reach out to a couple of wholesalers, agents and join some local investor groups either on Facebook or online local community to start.

Thanks, Haresh I couldn’t find the numbers you mentioned about them online.
