You should look to have a base of cash flow before you are financially stable enough to be in low/negative cash flow markets like California.

I highly recommend letting the attorney prepare the operating agrement based on questions they present you rather than have them mark up your version.

Assuming the property value has remained stable or appreciated, when you refinance, the lender will assess the current loan-to-value ratio (LTV) based on a new appraisal.

There are procedures for each of them.Also, make you read up on all of the requirements as there a limitations on screening fees, rent to income ratio, when and how you disclose your screening criteria, etc.

With what you're trying to do I definitely recommend speaking to an agent that is familiar with what you're trying to do as well as a financial planner THAT ACTUALLY DOES FINANCIAL PLANNING.You'll come to find that most financial planners are 100% commission based life insurance agents disguising themselves as a financial planner lol.Good luck!

This is a smart bunch so any sources or even logical approaches as to how one might find these numbers via research would be greatly appreciated :)I've done two separate top-down analysis based on census data, IRS data, and surveys, but those differ quite bit. 

Based on the sight survey, my property has a 113% electricity offset with a 9.72 kW system. 

I believe he’s based in the Seattle area.

You will have to follow the procedures within the municipality where the permit submission is located.
