My next move is to do a home equity line of credit (or loan) and pay off my rehab debt I accrued, and use it on a DP for prop #3.

As a man who earned a BA in Fine Arts, an AA in Commercial Art/Computer Graphics and an MBA in Business Marketing, I can say that curiosity is a beneficial trait and each new adventure has slowed an otherwise bountiful career.  

Thus it limits a high-income individual's (like @Andrey Y.) ability to contribute to a backdoor Roth IRA to a pro-rata basis rather than the full annual limit ($5,500/year) unless he's willing to convert the rollover IRA into a Roth and take the one-time tax hit.Out of curiosity, do any of your investors with 1099 income use solo-401k's to fund their real estate ventures?

I'm the OP and the post has nothing to do with politics, and everything to do with my curiosity about what real estate investors are thinking when it comes to investing in CA.

@John MorganJust out of curiosity, did you do a background check on them early on?

If this is truly a loan suspension (no interest accrued, no credit effects, in writing, etc.)

The pause button is essentially pressed, or in more technical terms (as interest was likely accruing and tax and insurance still being paid out of escrow, the quickest impact will likely a slight increase to escrow) but other than that your payment stays the same for years 7-30 and then the 6th year (when you didn’t make payments) gets added on in year 31.

They also tend to ask much later in the process and almost seems more like idle curiosity.

@Kay Kay Singh Out of curiosity are you looking to syndicate 3 yourself with 500 doors total?
