You mention first in the title and then in your statement, but please tell me what is a "contact deed" or "contact of deed"?

Mike

Have you tried networking locally in real estate groups, real estate investment groups, landlord associations, etc. to get personal, local, verifiable, recommendations?

Check with your local credit union: best rates and local decisions.
You would get more with a cash out refi than HELOC.

Clint,
Was that a question or a statement?

Thank you John!

I was about to reply, but Robin knocked it out of the park.  Good job!

Barbara,

Welcome to BiggerPockets from Eugene Oregon!

I'm on the Board of Directors of the Rental Owners Association of Lane County (over 1,300+ members representing over 20,000 rental units!).  We have monthly meetings and loads of classes/webinars on real estate topics. 

I'm also a member of ORREIA, Oregon Real Estate Investors Association. They also have monthly meetings, site visits to fix-n-flips, some classes, etc.

I'm happy to connect you into the local investing community. 

Mike

One question that always comes up is: "how difficult or easy is it to place properties into and out of the portfolio".

Eric,
If you are thinking of Oregon, especially Eugene, you need to talk to Dan Gandee.
(Dan on BiggerPockets:  https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/dang297#0)
Hands down, one of the best, hard working, knowledgeable real estate brokers I've ever met.  He has made me a ton of money as an investor.  I don't make a real estate move without him.  Period.
