First of all thank you so much for your detailed and spectacular responses @Brian Burke and @Theo Hicks.

According to CGS, the first surge of a worst-case tsunami would reach the Los Angeles coastline in only six hours.

Sounds like you really made your unit spectacular.

If you buy 31 miles from a coastline (which would be the case for a beach town), you'd need to use a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican corporation to buy.There is no MLS.

You don't get any additional funds unless you were so spectacularly successful on juicing the ARV that your refi covers the HML with some cash to spare, which probably was consumed by financing and holding costs anyway.Also, be sure to get pre-approved / estimates for your conventional refi before starting this process, you don't want to be stuck with an HML you can't pay off, extend, or refinance.

Nestled on 12 acres with spectacular pastoral and mountain views, Batten Green offers three perfectly appointed guest spaces sleeping up to 28: the historic Manor House, the 8-unit Millstone Lodge and the quaint Cranbrook Cottage.

Views are spectacular, with full sun exposure in summer and winter.

FBI has made some spectacular busts in this arena.. but investors continue to do it..

Emerson Heights isn't the issue (it's neither spectacular nor bad). 

Not only is the house design so well thought out (especially for standing out), but the decor and styling is spectacular as well.
