@Axel MeierhoeferThe sec compliance with this will have your head spinning as you would need to make sure each investor had equitable time to use a property as you cannot provide a specific benefit to two investors if in the same share class.If things go wrong with this or an investor gets upset and sues the risk you would be taking and the cost for D&O insurance would be through the roof to keep you out of prison.

That's a loaded question.

I would suggest speaking with a HELOC provider first.  

Contact the utility provider and get a historical average based on the last year of use.

Benchmark, Touchstone, First National Bank, First Citizens, First Carolina, Wake Forest Federal, and Providence ... all depending on the location and the deal.

The architect can provide specifications for various interior and exterior finishes and materials.

It's because of communities like this and the education they provide that I was able to get to this point.

My experience of the HOA in my scenario has been that they are very slow in communication and are reluctant to provide pertinent documentation.

Looks like it disappeared into the nether on my insurance provider website...great."

I am sure that this house will appreciate really nicely over time.Hopefully the spring market will heat up in your area and that will also help provide some excellent sales comps to boost your value.
