I am in the process of buying a commercial property with one agent (with a signed Buyer Representation Contract), and am also ready to engage in purchasing a second property--closing within a month of each other. 

I am also completely new to the process of purchasing a home, and I’m not quite sure what my first steps should be.

The one I’m really having an issue with now everything is all set but the roof being in the process of repair might be an issue.

Thinking about refinancing to get a lower payment, or cash out refi or Home equity loan which would free up more cash to speed up the process and use that money for a down payment. 

If so I would begin the eviction process since you have had multiple issues.

Signing/notarizing the quitclaim deed to shift the ownership of the property from my LLC to me as an individual was part of the closing process.

What’s your process of getting your numbers on repair estimates?

These products are a great fit for buy and hold investors and offer favorable terms and underwriting processes compared to traditional Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans - also helps you to get around maxing out your 8-10 loan limit with the government loans.

Instead it is simple as 1) knowing who you are and standing for that, 2) knowing your respective markets and knowing enough to know that is someone out there who knows more than you do and it is important to find and know that person. 3) trusting yourself when the time does come that you trust in your self and the processes you have created to make the deal. 

If you believe that things are as they always will be, (first you should look at the past and see if that is a reasonable assessment of what the future brings) then taking into account: limitations on what you can invest in, your Solo 401(k) "projected" growth, fees & hidden fees, you can't co-mingle funds, you have to carefully manage the process, future tax increases, tax law changes, a national debt that is north of $22 Trillion dollars, unfunded liabilities and and of course inflation, along with possible "bail ins" then you are well equipped to decide if that is a good choice for your style of investing.However, If you are an "opportunistic investor" . . . . you jump at the opportunity when it arises, then you run into some conflicts.
