Since the syndicator is looking to raise $1MM, of which within it, he will take $85K as as a fee, with the rest presumably going to down payment.  

You graduated (presumably) and will now benefit from the education you obtained making use of debt.

Google fails me here, can't seem to find any group, though I presume one or a few exist!

In addition presuming you had a 30yr loan.  

Except as otherwise required by law, all notices under this Commercial Lease from Landlord to Tenant shall be mailed by first class U.S. mail, postage pre-paid, to Tenant’s last known address, or e-mailed to the e-mail address provided by Tenant in the Terms and Conditions and shall be conclusively presumed to have been received by Tenant three (3) business days after mailing or emailing.

I wonder if you can tell me if this would result in positive cash flow presuming I was able to get the three builds done?

That would free you up to do other things - presumably make money.

Texas Property Code states:(d) A tenant is presumed to have abandoned the premises if goods, equipment, or other property, in an amount substantial enough to indicate a probable intent to abandon the premises, is being or has been removed from the premises and the removal is not within the normal course of the tenant's business.

If the Miami-Dade property is anything other than a single-family dwelling, the tax rate is $.60 plus $.45 surtax per $100 of consideration (or portion thereof).Examples of documents that may transfer an interest in real property include:• Warranty deeds• Quit claim deeds• Contracts for timber, gas, oil, or mineral rights• Easements• Contracts or agreements for deed• Assignments of contract or agreement for deed• Assignments of leasehold interest• Assignments of beneficial interest in a trust• Deeds in lieu of foreclosureConsideration generally includes, but is not limited to:• Money paid or to be paid• Discharge of an obligation• Mortgage or other lien encumbering the property• Exchange of property• Any other consideration which has valueWhen the consideration for real property includes property other than money, the consideration is presumed to be equal to the fair market value of the real property.Tax is due on the total consideration for the transfer regardless of the consideration shown on the face of the deed or other document that transfers the property.

However, before I go that route I want to be sure whether I can refi or take out a HELOC on my home for a (presumably) much lower rate than a hard money loan.Thanks for the advice and the bump!
