Talk to investors that have done deals and ask who they used and when you get the same name a few times, you have someone to add to your list.

Excellent deal for the minority partners (zero cash contribution) but a low ROI even accounting for tax savings of $24k/yr on a $500k cash investment.

Or a doc they have created & given a title company on a subject to deal?

Let me know if you're still looking at that deal and I would be happy to run some numbers and give you a good idea of what the property might be worth.  

In my experience, most tenants will play ball when they deal with a landlord who acts like a professional and sticks to the policies.

HELOC then you can use the equity for another deal but I would only use it if its for a flip or brrr or possibly if have a plan to pay the heloc off over short period of time.

Also, I want to ask how to estimate the rent for deal analysis.

Does it have to be a "smoking deal"?!?

But, this is a bigger "deal" and you potentiall get dragged into something you may not want so save a couple $10k's of taxes..
