I cannot qualify for the Real Estate Investor status because of my full time job but my wife could potentially do it.

So basically if I’m understanding you correctly, your saying a way I could potentially use my equity is as the down payment on a BRRRR as long as it’s ARV was large enough to get my HELOC money back after refinancing?

What information about myself and my partnership can I pre-package to arm myself with before approaching a potential lender?

Is there a tool to use to determine what the highest potential disasters are? 

While you should never believe their revenue projection on a specific property without doing further due diligence, I do think their data is a good baseline and can provide an eagle-eye view of areas with better occupancy, better ADR, lower supply and therefore higher revenue potential, etc.Good luck!

Definitely something to consider while vetting out potential GP's.  

If the lenders are ok with it it could be a great cash flow strategy.One more thing to consider is what a future potential buyer might think of the strategy.

We fell in love with this house and its potential, one block from the hospital at which my wife worked in 2022.

I'm particularly drawn to the flexibility and potential for growth that real estate offers. 

I'm from Columbus but have been looking into Dayton as a potential location for my first investment property.
