Would a home equity loan be a viable option in this situation, especially in regards to eliminating some of the red tape I'm running into with a refinancing an scorp-owned property?

You want a property that has the highest probability of maxing out on appreciation.Once done, you would want to explore the options below to maximize your rental income:- STR- MTR- Rent by RoomYou should go into this understanding YOU will live in the worst unit - in an illegal unit in the basement if you can!

But I would remain open to long-term rental as an option as this seems like a more stable option in terms of income, again this may be my inexperience talking.However, I have always  been somewhat risk averse and investing in real estate is always a big venture, in my opinion/experience, in terms of capital.

Moving forward I will start analyzing deals based on potential contractor prices.

I am based in Houston and currently embarking on my journey into the world of real estate wholesaling.

If this is not something you're interested in delving into and learning to a high degree, then investing in publicly traded REITs would be another good option for you, which have historically returned about 13.5 per cent Per year over the past 50 years (1977-present), beating the US stock market by two per cent and even beating private real estate investing by 4 per cent (that's compared with the average real estate investor, not the experts here at Bigger Pockets).

So a loss of about 55k We did a lease to own option so I could immediately take over expenses but keep their primary resident loan and interest rate.We agreed to a deal which would cover all their expenses at closing, their remaining loan balance, and $45,000.

Hi I am based in Canada and looking to connect with others who are investing in real estate in the USA or Canada.

Was hoping to get at least 115k based off what comps were.

@German Fernandez Love those options!
