That being said, it can be the most satisfying and cash-flow-positive business around. 

If it's the difference between $1800 and $2200 but you have to cover utilities too, not worth it. 

In order to refinance a home you must have six months title seasoning to use a "New appraisal" but keep in mind only certain lenders and programs allow a cash out refinance at the 6th month mark.

Liability Protection: Transferring to an LLC provides asset protection but may not always be worth the hassle or cost.Next Steps: Review your loan agreements, consult your lender, and get advice from a real estate attorney and tax pro to ensure everything’s compliant and beneficial.

There isn't enough cash flow in these deals to pay the mortgage, monthly expenses and the HELOC that I'm trying to leverage against.

Hey @Divine Nasikpo,If you have limited cash or assets, there are still ways to start earning in real estate:Wholesaling: While there are mixed opinions, wholesaling can be done with minimal money.

A DSCR refinance can also allow you to take some cash out if you want to use it to put down on another investment property and when you close simply close in an LLC.  

The pricing for Real Estate is way out of whack due to no supply so everything is over priced right now and not sure if worth the house hack. 

Purchase price: $172,000 Cash invested: $43,000 We purchased this rehabbed home and added a privacy fence, removed overhanging trees, finished the countertops, built a firepit, security system, camera's, fixed the sidewalk and turned it into an airbnb.

BRRR's or flip can recycle your cash so you can rinse and repeat.
