I have my property setup on AirBnB only right now. 

Thank you HenryHope you have a great time on your trip to Spain and do let me know if you needed any recommendation.

I am searching for help or advice on getting started and building this thing from the ground up.

I immediately listed it as-is, ready to be built on.

If you want to leave your IRA intact and avoid penalties or taxes, consider other options such as:HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit): If you own property with sufficient equity, a HELOC can provide funds for a down payment without tapping into your IRA.Personal Loan: Depending on your credit, a personal loan may be an alternative.Seller Financing or Private Lending: Look into creative financing options for real estate investors, such as seller financing or private lenders, which can help with down payments without needing to use your IRA.

By the way, I did exactly the above on my first and it paid off. 

Hi,I'm a new investor in Elmira...any advise on a multi-family group for that area would be great.

I have a few other questions that I am hoping I can get your opinions and advice on. 1.

I travel a lot to all my clients back east so I do get out to fine dining on those trips..

@Philip Levi it depends on what part of town the rental is in.
