The nuts and bolts: what is the best way to finance a nonessential home renovation.

It's a great way to build your business and enjoy the fruits of your work.If you would be interested in talking to a full service note servicer I would be happy to discuss our investor services for seller carry back transactions. 

What I'm doing in the meantime is trying to obtain a portfolio loan for 3 total properties in order to leverage the combined equity ( market here in Boston is nuts ) and secure one total loan, pay off my note & get a commercial line of credit to buy more properties cash & at value to add into the portfolio, thus re-upping the line.

Or, they will always be asking for more more more and will drive you nuts.

It's nuts. 

They had a real estate agent 'helping' them and she is a nut, threatening to send someone to stand on my doorstep and calling all day long.

@Jon Holdman and @Bryan Hancock have outlined some salient points that clearly present a challenge or road block to the method you plan to use to acquire these properties.Why not take a step back and try for the lower hanging fruits or smaller multifamily units, which you can use as a springboard to future higher capacity multifamily purchases?

Nuts!

Only that 2"x2" sqaure drives me nuts.

I' interested in utilizing crowd funding but was not sure if the process would be fruitful.
