Hello,
I'm looking for some remodeling help in Arvada. 
I need bathroom rebuilt, most of the demo is done. Need to remove/replace bathtub. Tile floor and shower enclosure. I'm planning to do the rest but if the pers...

Looking to purchase this property, not allowed inside and MLS says property does not have all C/O’s and will bot be obtaining them.

New entrants to the landlording world will likely be most affected due both to learning curve and cost basis.Since you are in Kitsap CO,  Bremerton is probably your best market for investment real estate;  there are usually several small rental complexes available over there an any given time;   its certainly on my radar  (as while I'm in seattle,  I will no longer invest in seattle) but there are also other secondary/tertiary markets that might be worth looking at;  just make sure that the area has a decent economic situation,  and/or the property you invest in is substantially more desirable that most of its competitive segment is so that if things soften up economically,  you are still holding a property people will want to live in if they have lots of options.There are also other types of RE investing - commercial, out of state, flipping,  etc which depending on you and your husbands interests, skill set, and risk tolerance could be worth looking at.

Do NOT co-mingle money. 

Two weeks ago NorCal threw down with this:"The Oakland City Council on Tuesday approved an ordinance that would prohibit landlords from asking about a potential tenant's criminal history or rejecting them out of hand for having a record"This week, SoCal said, "Hold my kombucha..." and replied with the above.

The co-op will likely be purchased by a family member.

In Colorado you can manage short term rentals without a real estate license tho I dint know the regs regarding money. 

In all likelihood, you are also forming a general partnership with the co-owners of the property, giving you all fiduciary duties to one another.  

My strategy is to use the HELOC purchase single/multi-family properties under market value that need repairs and renovation, make the necessary improvements, then refinance into a Mortgage (with forced equity), and rent for cash flow.I'm originally from the great state of Colorado, but have been living in Nashville, TN for several years now.
