You can use HML don't get me wrong but if you just put a little bit effort in to pre-planning and getting all your ducks in a row then going with a traditional community bank would be a better option not only for your current new construction needs but also for future acquisitions.

The downside is that you have to share your home with a neighbor and since most of our duplexes are upper/lower configurations you will usually hear them a little - at least know when they are home.

Hi Jaycee,I currently own 40 doors and I have good equity in them.
