We'd just need someone with experience or another party who could vet the opportunities for our acquisitions department to get it ready for contract.

I called and was turned down by: US Bank, PenFed, BofA, PNC, SunTrust, Flagstar, Citi, OneAZ CU, TD Bank, Union Bank, Pyramid CU, TOPCU (I did talk to Ken Krapf in their business department and they will do a Business line of credit for 1-2 years, renewable, for like 4-5%, with an investment property as collateral at 75% LTV), finally I was able to get Jeff at Vantage West CU who will do a HELOC on investment property at 70% LTV around 6.5-7.25%.

@Brian EastmanThanks Brian, I retired from the fire department in January and have a 457 that is just not returning much and I wanted to start build a rental portfolio.

I would like to see a new house built in 4 months including finding the land, making sure you can build what you want on the land before you lock up the sale of the land, get blueprints drawn up get the blueprints approved by the building department, break ground and have tenants move in be the end of the 4th month.In Palmdale California in Los Angeles County, in 1985, it took me 18 months to get permit and engineering to extend a super simple kitchen only 6 feet and the cost for the permits and engineering and soil report cost me $18,000.First of all, I don't believe in doing flips and prefer to buy and hold, if you have enough money.

You need to check with the city building and planning department.

I've never heard of a "Condominium Property Regime" but I think the City of Petaluma planning department can answer your questions.

The insurance company cared more about distance to fire department than Wells Fargo did for the loan. 

Yes this is crazy but it’s how it’s being interpreted right now until challenged in courthttps://www.lenderlaw.com/post/new-department-of-revenue-policy-complicates-foreclosure-sales?

Deal is finally in preclosing department and we're anticipating a closing date.

Call the local fire department (non-emergency number) and they may have other suggestions.
