We have access to some really cool market data through Matrix. 

Also, I was planning to move some old 401k's over to my current employer so I have access to the money in form of loans in a great deal came up and/or the HELCO was tied up. 

How would I go about getting a line of credit on a mortgage note that I own ??

If you assume a conservative 6% return, it'd be making $48k, and that's before any annual compounding from reinvestments.Now obviously the market can tank, but this isn't money I need any quick access to. 

This was incredibly efficient and allowed me access to the tenants full credit report, eviction history, and of course criminal record.

I was going to get bolt cutter and get access.

There's no really access to bulk distressed commercial properties, whereas they're everywhere for residential.3.

It's a pretty powerful tool if you've got access to cash.

There is no current loan on it and has full equity but I would like to access the equity in the home to be rehabbed as opposed to pulling money out of pocket or out of other properties equity.

Well, as you've pointed out, the problem with residential property is that you don't have access to leverage.
