Not a whole lot built in savings, but I do know a few potential partners that would want to go in with me and I'm good friends with a local GC.

FUNDING UPDATE:Hi everyone, thanks for keeping up with me and my undying drive to acquire this property.I spoke with my lender and the idea came up of pulling a HELOC on my 3-Unit house hack (which I bought some significant equity in) and using that line of credit for the down payment of a DSCR loan. 

I like the idea of fix and flip for additional capital but I’m a rookie and not sure if it is too much of a risk for my first investment to be a flip.Aside from wanting to get in to San Diego, my priority is to get in the game and set myself up to be able to grow my portfolio.Any feedback or advice would be much appreciated!! 

It's a good idea to consult a lawyer and/or insurance company for professional advice on these specific matters.

I currently have about $50k saved up, and my fiancee has about another $50k.

Offense is making money, defense is saving money.

I would try to look at their social media accounts to get a good idea of whom they are or portray to be.

Very comfortable with taxes, but haven’t done tax work for years, so sometimes I seek advice on things I’ve forgotten.No one is going to do the level analysis and planning that I do with my own taxes, so I’m fairly certain I’m saving a significant amount of money in legal tax avoidance. 

It's a good idea to talk to legal and financial experts about taxes, insurance, liability, rental agreements, and managing your finances.
