@Peter Jaglom a combination of both price and block. 

Pit bulls were created by breeding bulldogs and terriers together to produce a dog that combined was used in blood sports.  

I use a combination of many online ARV estimators, plus my realtor.

Once the repairs are done, you can get a rate & term refi (different than cash out refi) to combine the two loans into one. 

I'm just now starting to look and I went on Lending Tree and was offered a "Combination Loan" by one of their companies called lower.com.

Your net worth or combined net worth if you bring in guarantors will need to equal the loan amount and they typically require roughly 10% liquidity of the loan amount from all guarantors.It can be a smart move for your first multifamily property to be a yield play so it is cash flowing from day one and you don't have as many headaches with a value-add deal.

If you have experience in real estate photography, why not combine your skill and your money toward someone else's deal?

I think I'll try a combination of things suggested here.

With home ownership out of reach for the middle class in Los Angeles and rental costs skyrocketing, I think people would be interested in alternative solutions.The community I was thinking about involves a combination of manufactured homes and mobile homes (tiny homes and RVs). 

It is a combination of not being able to purchase cheap enough, low LTV loans on refis, and conservative refi appraisals.
