We have been going to local meetups instead to network for our construction and development business as a way to build capital and partner with other investors.

As a result, we have very few military tenants who choose to apply to live in PTown. 

As a property owner and beginners investors I have been struggling a lot with property management companies for our rental home in Woodland.

As a traditional long-term rental, these should fetch $2000-$2200/month. 

Even if I increase my rent, I figure it will probably take 4 to 5 years to recover the 8K as well as a couple of years to cover the lost rent.I will look into the lease option. 

I am prepared to register as a vacant building and take care of all violations I just need a lawyer with experience in this.

More so as a sanity check to see how I stack up against my competition and as a data point in underwriting. 

Hopefully by the end of that time frame, it will have appreciated enough that we can sell it and use the equity as a down payment on some acreage while still keeping the first house as a rental.Option 2: stay where we are and use the heloc to invest in rental properties out of state like Kansas City, Cleveland, etc.

Because as a builder, the actual subfloor is quite serious to talk about redoing - there’s no “just pull it up and replace it” assuming there are interior walls in there.

Or is there anyone that would potentially wanna sit down and join my LLC as a lender and we can discuss terms and build a connection and do good business together!
