I appreciate your input.You’re right it did come across a little abrasive and that isn’t my main intention, so I apologize for that.I guess my main point was you acknowledge it’s not an investment (that’s good, we agree there) but then where we disagree is youre trying to apply investment financing (like seller financing with balloon payments) to something you just said isn’t an investment.Obviously you can do this if you want, but I think it’s a bad idea.  

I will follow-up with an accountant to see how these new tax rules apply to REITs.

All provided really good information I can apply.  

You will apply with them, normally when you find a home.

Does same rules apply ???

This applies to both furniture and appliances which are often times in nearly new condition.

Even if the fund bought assets in non opportunity zones, the tax benefits would apply to said company and it's long-term holdings. 

How often is that granted and how many days before the redemption runs out do you need to go to the judge to apply?

I will disagree that "licensing is easy to get," as the NMLS test is hard to pass AND even if you do, your entity must now begin quarterly and annual reporting to the NMLS System.Also, under Dodd Frank, if the above apply, you are probably required to document the borrower's ability to repay, and service the credit agreements/loans under the strict Dodd Frank loan servicing rules. 

I applied to borrow 230k Equity loan from a credit union, but they want a statement explaining what the money is for -other than paying back the debt.
