Hello everyone,I’m a 18 year old electrical apprentice and I’m looking to do a full dive into real estate investing.I am in the union and earning base wage, parking, vacation pay, pension and full benefits are covered.I am saving about 400/w in a high interest savings account right now which is 60% of my pay, I am going to get guaranteed $5/h raises every year for the next 5 years.

Could that bite our REP in year 5 when a big pile of ordinary earnings income is realized (if they don’t 1031 and defer it)?

For me, a "Good" Sponsor looks something like this: - Fees more or less result in a solid full-time salary for sponsor, not millions in upfront compensation:  Fees are structured such that the sponsor earns a good living while managing your money, but does not make a killing until your money is returned.

LOC on business purpose doesn't really make sense from a lenders perspective.Think about it, you have to tie up funds and not earn a return until the borrower wants to use them.Time is money and if your lending money you want a return each day your money is out.I'd strongly recommend just going with a cash out refinance and avoid spinning wheels looking for a LOC.
