Which is wonderful news, because if it was this easy and automate-able, then wall-street would simply buy the top 10 in every market in America perpetually and you and I would have no opportunity.  

So if it's a syndication, then it is likely strutured as a Partnership or Corporation that is reported under "PART II" of your "SCHEDULE E" on your personal returns.  

And if you've set it up as a legal entity, you risk what they call "piercing the corporate veil" which is when a judge rules that your company doesn't really exist because you mixed your funds.If you have just the one property I would suggest learning the ropes of basic bookkeeping for it.

Personally, (I admit I'm a little cynical) I'm at a point where I don't trust any big corporation or bank to determine how much I'm worth or really have my best interests at heart. 

Has anyone had any pass or current experiences with Finance of America for Investment property loans?

This is America.

The economy was growing at a steady but not insane rate, corporate earnings were up, worker incomes were rising, unemployment was the lowest it has been in a long time, and demand for new housing was accelerating.Then the Govt decided in it's wisdom that we all needed to stay home for 2-3 months, and in exchange they dumped a pile of money onto the economy and into private citizen's bank accounts.All this to say, we have no clue what's going to happen with the market.  

You could follow corporate news and see where big business is putting in their next big location.

That being said, the rates you get on rentals in LA are very , very poor compared to most cities in America.

@Dustin PetersIf you are self-employed with no full-time employees (even though you have a separate w-2 job), you would be eligible to establish a self-directed Solo 401k.You could then make contributions to the Solo 401k from your self-employment income (i.e. w-2 income when your business is taxed as an S-corporation, 1099-misc income if you are a sole proprietor).If your plan allows for it, you can make pre-tax, Roth (or even additional voluntary after-tax) contributions.Contributions can be made as both employee and employer contributions (since you wear both hats):The employee contribution limit is 100% of your w-2 wages up to $19,500 (or an additional $6,500 if you are 50 or older) provided that you are not making employee contributions to another plan (e.g. if you have a day job with a 401k plan).
