Thanks for the input. I apologize to the BP community for multiple posts. i was drafting them through the app and it kept crashing. Apparently it posted them all anyway. I'm not a huge fan of the app, but that's another discussion altogether.

@Diane Dono I'll look into my local lenders who I have accounts with. I'm somewhat new to the area, so I don't have longstanding relationships, but it doesn't hurt to strong arm them a bit/dangle a carrot.

@Marco G. I went to Bankrate on Friday and I'll never do it again. No sooner had I entered my email and phone number when my phone started ringing. I have averaged 5 calls a day from Capital One and Quicken Loans and others. They're relentless. That's not how I like to do business, so I'll try local and see if they can compete with the national perks.

@Edward B. Thanks so much for the advice. It's amazing the feeding frenzy that occurs when the lending-sphere finds out you're trying to apply for one. My phone rings several times an hour with banks and lenders hitting me with their pitch. I will carefully proceed to analyze the best option.

Hello, I am wondering if there is a best way to go about getting a HELOC. My credit is great and I have over $100k in equity. Should I look at small, local lenders or is it generally better to go with nationals like Capital One or Quicken loans on Helocs? Any advantage to using my original mortgage lender? Much thanks in advance.

Hey BP community! I'm new to investing and have one property with plans to scale that this year with some buy and holds as well as flips. I am looking to build my network and protect my investments from extraneous taxes. Can anyone recommend a good tax accountant in the Northwest Maryland area? Thanks in advance!!!

Thanks. I'll go by sight and work my way up the chain to the owners for permissions. You both are excellent people for helping so quickly.
