I know this is a slower process than you might like but $3.3M in debt is a lot for most people.

They will let you know what you can and can't do without a permit and what you are able to do yourself within the scopes of those permits.My concern is because this is a rental, if you do anything that is not to code and the tenant reports it, you will likely have some much bigger issues to deal with.Given you note this is major rehab, I tend to lean to hire most, if not all, out. 

Maybe even a B depending on how you're feeling that day.

Think about what would make your rentals more attractive than what’s already available—whether it’s high-end amenities, themed experiences, or a community-focused approach.If you’re open to chatting, I’d be happy to brainstorm ideas or connect you with people who have experience in this space, only know a few but happy to make any intros I can to help you out. 

How to match them and where to get them?

Let me know how you’d like to proceed!

You and your wife most certainly did your research and know what you want.

If you don’t know the legal notice requirements for your market make sure you figure all that out before you do anything. 

That would be great if you can post the study here.P.S what are your thoughts on PropertyRadar(I hear they do daily updates I dont know how true this is though) and Listsource by core logic(the site claims daily updates)? 

Quote from @Mary Holland: I'd love to hear about your experiences and how they compare to other types of commercial real estate financing.
