My point is certain things are learned with experience and 1) acting as GC once does not provide an opportunity to leverage the experience 2) mistakes can be costly.good luckHi Dan,thank you.

You should check with your 1031 provider quickly.

@Vina Merrill,I don't have much intel on Knoxville, but I’m active as an investor, turnkey provider, and builder in Chattanooga.

If it is someone you know you can give them a straight return as if its a loan - can provide a lower interest rate to provide upside - it really depends on the lender and what are they concerned with and what is their risk profile. 

Additionally, you could also check with your insurance provider to confirm there's no active risk and provide that documentation to the lender as reassurance.

I do NOT have enough knowledge or experience in this arena to provide specific “how to” accomplish this, or even to provide specific”proof” of my position.  

I have multiple lenders that can provide 100% financing for your rehab projects.

@Jason Lopez You don’t need an LLC to rent out a house in San Antonio, TX, but it can provide liability protection by separating your personal assets from your rental property.

Hello Everyone,Does anyone know of a lender who can provide a 1st lien HELOC on a 2 unit rental property?

Game changer.
