I informed him that his wife would have to apply and if everything checks out then we would need a background check on him before moving forward.

I could do it myself but need some direction on exactly what it looks like.  

Hello all,Anyone have any recommendations for banks that are still opening HELOCs on investment properties.

Wanted to get your input on this.Been screening multi-family and commercial real estate opportunities.

Depending on the construction of the building (block or stick, etc), you will want to test the connection strength.  

Current plan is to take out an equity loan on the property (tax rolls have it at ~$300k) and use some additional cash to build 4 units, then refi, then build additional units until we have ~20 doors on the property.
