#1 - Acquire a HELOC on the investment property (old forums stated PenFed has a product) at 70% LTV (Don't want to cash out refi, since I have a really good 1st mortgage already in place)  #2 - Take out the funds out of the HELOC and put into savings for 3 months  #3 - use the funds along with some of my other savings to acquire another multi with 70% financing.  

Not a legal advice, but AFAIK you cannot mix IRA funds and loans unless your IRA invests in a security and not in a property directly.

Raise the rents, whats the difference in someone paying $700 including no bills and say you include all the utilities for $850 a month. 

.- I have to work under a broker for 2 years before I can apply for my brokers license in state of FL- I have to split my commission profit with broker and all funds/payments must be made out directly to the broker- the percentage commission I negotiate with property owners is my decisionDetermine best path to form Vacation Rental Property Management company being aware of my new status a sales associate- can I start my own business entity to establish and brand my VR management company now, or would/should I just wait the 2 years, get brokers license and then do so.

You would then have to get a Letter of Environmental Protection, which will lower the value of your property and raise your insurance rates.Deleading generally costs $3000-$5000 per unit.

I also own a farming business (www.HealthyHenFarms.com) with my wife and 6 kids where we produce and direct market organic, pasture raised chicken to our customers in the Raleigh area.I've dabbled in real estate off and on for 20 years, mainly turning primary residences into rentals as we have moved across the country (NC, CA, GA, VA) over the years. 

Congrats on this find, and your success in creatively funding it.

A 3rd party is like a fresh set of eyes that can raise good question or even suggestions that you might not have noticed.

I was born and raised in Dallas.

Does anyone have any knowledge of the crowd funding space?
