Hi Jonathan,Yes, my goal is to actually keep it at 4 units, but also wanted to make some changes so that I can live in a bigger unit, have a bigger unit to rent, and 2 smaller (new) units in the basement that I can also rent out. 

🚀 I would actually respectfully disagree.

(Still unsure if this actually correlates to rent price as the housing authority rep that I spoke to was very ambiguous when I asked what potential rents I could receive)The only reason that I'm considering is because this purchase was by no means a great deal, I just wanted to have something cheaper than my rent while learning how to renovate/manage a property.

There is also the potential to fit another unit, which would actually decrease my construction costs (less total sq feet), but increase sales costs.

there are actually a lot of threads on the forums like this. 

Of course, you'd have to find such a deal, and actually be able to make it for the refi, which doesn't always perfectly workout, unlike the videos would have you believe. 

We follow Michigan laws and post Legal Entry Notices, which leads to most of the problem tenants actually scheduling an inspection.Why would you care at this point about prior evictions for tenants that you state are paying?

I actually just got back from visiting my family & attending some wealth/financial events at Art Basel this past wknd!

These are obstacles I am facing:HELOC - I cannot find a bank that will do this on an investment property Business line of credit - I thought I could use the equity to back the credit but the banks are not viewing it that way, they want to see high liquid assets held by the business to support the credit Business loan - the banks are underwriting the potential new loan based on cash flow from the properties, but they are only using 75% of actual rents which makes it look like the business doesn't have the means to cover the additional debt

., give up a high percentage of profit for marketing cost coverage, they operate profitably and this would actually lower their net profit even after lower costs.
