I am planning on not resigning my lease and starting of my RE venture. 

I am also leaning towards GC'ing it myself, so I'm using an architect to draw up plans, and I'm looking for subs.

That is our plan with all but 1 property. 

Those policies that weren’t forced on the plan of last resort, the state run California ‘Fair’ Plan are significantly underinsured.

It may also make it easier for your estate planning attorney to line up ownership with your estate plan, assuming a CA-estate plan if a CA resident.

I know you mentioned taking time to relax, do you plan to further scale or do something different outside real estate?

This property cashflows very well now, so I do not plan to sell for quite some time. 

I’m 17 and plan on getting my real estate license right after I graduate high school.

You Can Only Have 35 Non-Accredited InvestorsRule 506(b) allows an unlimited number of accredited investors but restricts you to only 35 non-accredited investors.However, there’s a catch:Non-accredited investors must be financially sophisticated.They must have enough experience to evaluate the investment risks.From the SEC:“Securities may not be sold to more than 35 non-accredited investors… [who] must meet the legal standard of having sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment.”If you’re planning to include non-accredited investors, make sure they qualify—or you could be violating SEC rules.3.

Having strong agreements, clear communication, and contingency plans in place can help mitigate risks before they become major issues.
