You have to refinance your first home and do FHA on your second one.

I am looking to do some financing to build on one of my vacant lands.

but your numbers on it as a BRRRR are overly optimistic. 

We're looking to renovate something before the end of the year to accomplish 2 things: 1) Improve home value so we can get appraisal, refinance and leverage that to buy a new property. 2) Take advantage of the tax credits that are out there in 2024 before the new year or is it better to wait until 2025 and just hold onto the cash I have at hand.Here is a list of renovations that will need to be done eventually:*Brand new basement kitchen (cabinets + add seating area - we already have brand new dishwasher, fridge, gas oven)*New standing shower in the basement bathroom*New Siding*AC/Furnace for unit 1 are close to end of life but still functioning*New Fence/landscaping*New Windows for the basement*New Garage (unstable, concrete shifting, very old)*Solar Panels on the roof (There is a $0 down payment lease option w/ sunrun, but I'm hesitant to move forward)*Renovate master bedroom closet for tenants (it is old & has built in entertainment center that is very dated)*Repair Catch basin*Adding better drainage system for back door.Greatly appreciate any help, insight or advice!

Hello everyone,I am buying an RSO-controlled property in Los Feliz and will be performing a no-fault eviction so I can move in as my primary residence.The property is currently a duplex, with a 2 bed 1 bath on the top and a 5 bed 3 bath on the bottom.

Also, if the contractor is performing the work or the repairs on the property, can I count that time the GC spent as my own time in the activity log since he was doing the work on my behalf?   

However, I’m not sure how to determine if it’s truly a good place to focus on.

More on that later2.

There is always a crisis going on.

A lot of buyers are on the sidelines because rates are so high.
