I'm building a closet, and trying to decide which kind of doors to use. 

Our first DEEP value add multifamily project here in Radford, VA just stabilized and refinanced out of the 12 month construction loan. 6 unit apartment building all 2x1 near Radford Campus.

The drive is a horseshoe shape around the back of the building (only one building on the property).

See below output with a few thoughts:- Would need a few more data points to be precise (rehab estimate, duration estimate, property taxes, insurance, utilities, HOA, maintenance, etc.).- Assuming a 12% HML with a 3% origination fee held for 4 months, with a 30-year cash out refinance at 70% LTV and 7% interest rate, where the property stabilizes two months after refinancing (6 months after purchasing), you would (i) nearly breakeven on the cash out refinance and would generate $455 in monthly net cash flow in year 1, increasing annually, assuming you rent for $7,000 in year 1 and increase rent 4% YoY.- See below and let me know if you would like me to send you a copy.

That's less than 22% of the taxes owed!!!! 

I have a primary residence that is a 4-unit building.

My goal is to build a team online and irl to help with this new journey.

In Chicago, there are quite a few buildings with illegal garden units, and I thought it might be possible to live in one of those while I'm trying to make it legal with the city but would that be against FHA guidelines or conventional loan requirements?

If people are getting free electricity and water, they tend to be a little less frugal :) .Then check on insurance costs for a MFH and add that to your projections.Finally, talk to your contractors and see what requires permits, what their experience has been in getting them to pass inspections, the timeline and the cost.Factor all of these into the decision to move forward or leave as is - maybe advertise it as a 4/1 with a home office with outside access and get more rent that way.One last point - I hope that the addition you mentioned was done with permits and is reflected on the tax rolls because if not, you may open a can of worms you wish you had not.

I pay myself on a W2, I've submitted my tax returns and a bunch of other info to them, now they want to see the company's financial records.
