Just Google it, interview them, and put them in place.

Hello BP, I am looking to see which local banks in Tampa you may have had success/great experience with for a 75%-80% LTV cash out refi for a SFH investment property?

I’m working on analyzing the following self-storage properties and wanted to see if my approach makes sense.

I have already rented my first property and am excited to continue on to the next.

We would like to have the property to an LLC for liability purposes and then have the LLC owned by our Family Trust for Estate Planning purposes.

I'm actively purchasing multiple properties and would like to leverage hard money loans with terms typically ranging from 1.5 to 2 years.My primary focus is on securing financing that aligns with my investment goals while ensuring that the rates and terms are the most favorable.

To answer both your questions, I would recommend you don't engage a real estate-focused accountant until you have at least one property.

I hate that my money would be stuck in the property though. hoping to get some insight.  

This basically releases the one moving out and the security deposit stays with the property. 

When starting out, I think you should at least be able to get to your property several times within the first couple of years to en reasonable amousure everything is set up and functioning properly.
