You will be much more attractive to lenders if they see that you HAVE that money...even if you're not actually using it in the deal.

The HVAC ducts were designed badly and because this was built in the 90s there are no dedicated air return grilles.

Cash out Refi's right now are very attractive, especially on a primary residence. 

We’re analyzing properties right now with the idea of some immediate capital growth (fix/flip)(BRRRR), and long term looking at value add plays on existing structure or ground up on infill lots we can either buy or become land partners with the owners on.My focus is building, design, buy/sell, project management.  

@Miles Thompson The nice thing about Nelson BC is that laneway house could be a very attractive AirBnb, if you ever want to increase the income coming in!

Initially my goal was to have a loft with an extra bed in the unit to be more attractive for short term renters.

An off-market deal takes longer to find but has the best chance for attractive discounts.
