Before making any decision, I would get a customized property evaluation by a local Realtor to determine the value of the property on both sides of the spectrum; sale OR rental. 

The proceeds could be reinvested into something with better returns or even used to simplify your finances(Like Bettment still offer 4.75% for new customers, and you don't need to do anything!).

The goal of a HELOC is a quick line of credit to either refinance or sell and pay back the HELOC as soon as possible.PS - I would recommend taking a look into the Columbus Ohio market, there's tons of 1% rule deals still within the 120-180k price point with amazing appreciation potential.

I ran my own custom proforma for a bank loan using the asking price that would generate a cap rate over 10% and CoC just under 20%.

They’re requesting what feels like an unreasonable amount of information, and the demands keep escalating.So far, they’ve asked for:A video tour of my home officeCredit checks on me and my partnerCopies of the deeds for every property we ownA copy of my partner’s home lease and utility billsBusiness phone billsA signed letter from the bank verifying our accountsBank statementsHonestly, it feels more like qualifying for a loan than trying to become a customer.

Not good I think its a good tool for fix and flip and short term holds but not for long term holds if you have not ability to refi or enough equity to sell quickly even if you do and the sellers loan gets called they are still going to get their credit trashed. . 

They want someone who is going to treat their employees and their customers well.

Yes we avoid custom work to help keep cost down. 

They sound very knowledgeable and I am interested in jumping into the customized course they offer.
