It is no secret we were in a temporary sweet spot with many now suffering from a change in the market.If you can stay on board as a consultant and train a newby you just might be onto something.

The investor purchased the asset with the intention of renovating the units and adding value by increasing rents.South Shore remains to be one of the most undervalued neighborhoods in the City of Chicago relative to employment, average house hold income, occupancy levels and rents.

With all the major developments happening in the North Shore of Staten Island on the waterfront (NY Wheel/Empire Outlets/URL/LightHouse Point/Bay St Corridor/The Accolade), I'm wondering if anyone on BiggerPockets is investing in Staten Islands north shore?

I am considering purchasing a flip house in Louisiana that needs shoring, but I am not convinced I should get into a house that needs shoring. 

We are currently renovation a duplex in the Pittsburgh north shore, one unit for us to live in, and the other to start leasing this summer.  

Hi all - I recently acquired some land on the Jersey shore and I'm trying to figure out the best way to finance the building of a vacation rental property. 

HELOC's are generally used for temporary money since they have adjustable interest rates.  

You can create temporary roadblocks, but it's almost impossible to deal with the public anonymously anymore.Spend your time looking for good deals.

*also avoids the need for a 1031 exchange, although his nominal tax bracket may be low enough (I need to check) that he wouldn't have to pay capital gains tax anyway, even if the house was sold at a gainI need help navigating the endless possibilities (temporary corporate structures, seller finance arrangements, 1031 exchanges, etc) to figure out how this might be done... and have it spelled out for me in layman's terms :)  Ideally he'd like not to personally guarantee a loan but I just don't think that's realistic given it's his credit score we're using.I suspect that, in the end, we'll just have to wait until my credit score is large enough that I (my LLC that is) can buy property directly, and just have him contribute capital as he has before.Any and all ideas welcome.Peace & thanks,Lance
