Almost all the attendees were new...there was a raise of hands of people who had at least 2 deals under their belts.

We have six properties under management with JWB (five purchased from JWB) and “it ain’t going so well”.Ask Me Anything

In my mind if you need to borrow money for these kinds of services your simply under capitalized and taking on long term financial risk.

A common misconception is that real estate properties under $1M have a smaller tax basis and therefore do not benefit from a cost segregation study due to the associated fees.

NEVER borrow from a 401K, you are taking pre-taxed dollars and paying it back with after tax dollars, you do not get to return the loan with pre taxed dollars, in addition, some 401K plans do charge interest and maybe even fees, and lastly if you get laid off for some reason, it is a distribution with all the "fun consequences: tax at the last dollar rate, and if you are under 59.5 there is also the additional 10% penalty.Personally I like the HELOC, however you can also sell stocks and do tax harvesting there to offset gains if that is an option

It is my opinion it is a small percent that do not act with integrity.Do thorough and conservative under writing.  

No, it is inside of an HOA neighborhood but the current regulations only restrict rentals under 30 days stays.
