Two years ago I formed a new incorporation with a partner with the goal of buying multiple properties over the following years.

Once you verify a clean title,  you can create the company and then provide the Articles of Incorporation to the title company. 

The appraiser mentioned it as a custom fitting being more valuable than it really was.If you incorporate custom details, in good taste for the style of property and quality, it makes an impression that can add more value than the real cost. :)

Make some money in it first, see if it is what you want to do rather than spending money on incorporating first.

It allows me to incorporate any lessons learned over the year to build a better lease.

Intuit was incorporated in California in March 1984....

In case you didn't already know, you can qualify for a higher mortgage loan by incorporating the cash flow you will be receiving from the other three units as well.

If you can do this with a CPA letter or Articles of incorporation that will suffice.Now this would be a cash out refinance and not a HELOC so coupled with the comments on commercial, local banks, HML's and looking for a good Loan Officer you should be able to get that cash out and use it to grow your business.So if you have tax returns how did you have you CPA structure them?

I have decided to pass on that particular deal but am evaluating another right now, incorporating everyone's feedback.

I liked the fact that it's a newer company and they incorporate a lot of interesting features.
