For years, I've invested in real estate, and never thought I would really have enough capital to really diversify my investments and solidify my financial position.

The Goal:Find a creative way to use the equity I have built to continue the venture, and keep developing, (but how with zero income last 2yrs)Invest in the area by providing a service and get involved in the local real estate market.Ultimately, to find a cash partner that I can build a strong relationship with, and keep developing  properties for Sale, STR, LTR, etc...FINAL THOUGHTS:Although my approach at all of this went against my knowlege, I did it for me, this was a moment in life where I needed to prove that i could go beyond familiarity and comforts and still manage to succesfully learn, build, and stay interested.

Either way, having your ducks in a row before making a move will protect you from costly setbacks.Note: This information is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, tax, financial, or investment advice.

What is the value of your primary home, and have you talked with  any banks/credit unions in/around White Plains? 

Quote from @Shaun Ortiz: Hey BP Community,I'm curious to hear your insights on building a successful real estate investment team.

@Scott Stuart I'd also recommend looking for a great accountant that is familiar with real estate investing as every situation is unique, you can find tax pros here https://www.biggerpockets.com/business/finder/tax-and-financ...

This is a common issue facing investors with investment properties in their personal name.

But, I don't invest in SC or know anything about this market in particular.

And one in WA DC  300 plus lots with combination of townhouse and SFR product. little less investment than Oregon one..
