Hello Investors and LandlordsI have a situation and was hoping that someone could provide me with a few pointers.

Doing syndicated deals as either a passive or lead investor is one of the proven routes for your situation.

We are in a similar situation with one of our basement tenants.  

Although I did check beforehand that there were no HOA liens, I've run into an odd situation on a townhouse I have under contract.  

Looking back a few years on my own situation makes me wish I had heard of BP and learned about these strategies when I graduated from Akron.  

It's a little strange but these days commercial financing can sometimes be more cost effective than what an owner would do unless they're willing to accept a really low interest rate.The situation I see a lot recently is a retiring baby boomer with plenty of equity.

I do know that the property will always have a lot of people wanting to lease, I just don't know how hard to stress the rents in this situation.  

The first step would be to analyze your situation and determine if you really need one. 

I believe in win-win situations, and that's what I hope to facilitate.

I've considered it but have not executed.In regards to the heloc if I understand things correctly you will not be able to take out a heloc on a investment property but simply a loc or a blanket/commercial loan depending on the financial institution you decide to approach with the situation.
