PM me and I'd be happy to advise a plan of action. 

Trying to understand the situation before being able to advise.

Hello Everyone … always get great advise here!

What would you advise to do to pull some equity to pay for down payment and invest cash into syndication with 17% annual return or just pay cash for down payment.

Remember that the more complexity increases not just legal set-up and ongoing fees, but tax prep and advising fees as well.There are several considerations that can go into the analysis of whether you need an LLC or whether a large insurance policy will suffice.

Unfortunately, there is not...unless you want to count gurus that charge you $10K/year to be a student, but they, themselves, don't really have the background necessary to advise (read some of the backgrounds of these jokers...really...you'll be stunned).

She advised me that the next step is to schedule a $97 Consultation with an Attorney. 

I advise clients to do the same when they are starting out so they don't get this feeling of FOMO for deals they aren't doing

I typically advise to buy as big of a home as you can.

Just for future advise if you have equity in your home its best to get a heloc ahead of time and just have that credit line open similar to a credit card so you can tap in to it whenever needed weather it be to pay off debt, or invest in your next property or for family emergency.
