Hey , i am new to the bigger pocket forums , we are thinking of trying to get away from Canada and i was wondering about getting work with a builder /contractor under an E-2 or similar visa .

Some ideas I've considered:Equity Buyout: Having another investor or my partner buy out my 40% equity.Seller Financing: Selling my equity and offering seller financing to the buyer.Selling the Property: Liquidating the property entirely and splitting the proceeds.Does anyone have experience with situations like this?

Proof of funds would be a bank statement or some other document indicating the liquidity you have.

Quote from @Fareen E.: Quote from @Jaron Walling: Follow your lease.

This one was strange because I ended up splitting the companies and partners involved in the deal so we liquidated halfway through the project. 

I would keep as much liquid as possible and essentially get you to 20% equity or more by renovating the property. 

Unless you're working with Private Money that is going to carry the risk of your lack of experience, banks want to see experience, Net Worth and liquidity after close to consider the terms.I started with single family, four plexes, and remodel flips for a lot of years before getting into larger deals. 

Dealing with PG&E to relocate the meters due to proximity to gas meters.

Meeting a 20% down payment to avoid PMI seems manageable, although would take a big chunk of my liquid net worth, and I prefer this route over using an FHA loan.

I think they've done a great job of building their product and if you already have a property listed on Airbnb, it's super easy to import to MiniStays (though it's not difficult to list your property there if you don't.)
