I don't think enough people consider this aspect.Selling Stock: Selling part of your portfolio could work, but the 15% capital gains tax might make this an expensive choice unless the stock has underperformed or you’re diversifying away from riskier investments.HELOC: Using a HELOC on an existing property is a flexible and relatively low-cost option.

Its the dead of winter bro, who is moving during Christmas?

Could you put it on a CC and pay it off within the billing cycle with either your income or selling some stock if absolutely necessary?

Quote from @Robert Pickett: I am in CA too and it is a dead end situation with prices and very little prtection for landlords.  

Careful in the Stock Market, seems great on it's upward trajectory however...

Pinky Finger is the dead giveaway of a Class A+ neighborhood!  

sounds like someone got a nasty gram.. we see this with the syndicators that are called out then threaten the investor who called them out.. or anyone else companing about a service only to have the company either threaten or tell them if you take this down or retract we will give you your money back.. kind of like landlords lying about how great their dead beat tenant is to just get them to move on to the next landlord. 

Think: a coffee station stocked with local beans or a reading nook with plenty of natural light.

You would then stress to not incur any improvement cost above $22,000 or you may have to liquidate the property.In this scenariod, $60,000 if you are making an above return at 10% to 12% annually + $30,000 making $4% in a HYSA, the average return is maybe around 8%The blended return would be about 9%You may be better off investing in the stock market, get a slightly lower return but without all the added stress / work.

This is a pretty old post - not sure why a newbie felt the need to resurrect the dead here - and I'm not sure the OP is still hanging around, but if he is:The first rule when you are in a hole is to stop digging.
