but it looks like more when you try to sign up.  

I have a heloc on my personal home for 200,000 but ive only used 16,000 of it.

It's not rehabs and is scalable. its new construction but doesn't have all the headaches.

But I think this might help?

Lenders want to protect their investment not because of possibly you but your profile (little equity / assets etc) which is common for someone in their early 20's - want to make sure skin in game.

But is this possible with my current capital?

It seems easy, but is a tough job, and usually worth the 10% premium they ask. 

I am late to your inquiry but wondered if you ever closed on that investment opportunity?

I'm in LA and don't intend to move, but I'll definitely keep investing there.

For the last 4 years I have purchased 7 rental homes that are all renting but similarly to monopoly it’s time to scale.
