I’d suggest beginning by connecting with an agent who specializes in multi-family properties.

My next goal is to invest in a multi family property with a partner.Welcome to BP!

I recommend starting by contacting the county’s property tax office to determine if they are open to discussing or reviewing an appeal for property taxes.

I would look at the DSCR loan as the first option.By the way, I suspect you are going to be disappointed by any refi appraisals   ADUs typically appraise poorly   JADUs can lower the property value Vs having the space as part of the primary unit.  

Look for properties with value-add potential, plan renovations carefully, and use tools like the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculator to analyze deals.

We only look at the income the property is generating for those. 

HELOCs typically do not go above 75-80% of value and since the property was purchased recently they would not see that equity unless you did some major rehab to the property.

I'm not sure I have full confidence in this property management company.

Did you put in the carpet when all the properties in the comps you pulled are selling with luxury vinyl..

I definitely want to buy more properties.
