From experience there's nothing to be gained waiting for a tenant that's marginally better but wants to wait 3 months to move in, unless they are willing to pay rent on the unit for that time period in which case we're happy to keep an eye on the place until they move in. 

You have until the end of the draw period to pull it back out, so put it towards paying down your HELOC faster to save on interest payments.

Thanks Chris, the red flags were unpermitted things that can not be legalized (but having been advertised in the listing) and we only found out after the inspection period that the property is too small to make the downstairs unit legal.. we didnt have an out after the inspection period and went ahead with it.. we did have a lawyer look at it.

Having something that will always be a one-person business, I hated the thought of needing to have a board of directors, and even having periodic meetings.

Great way to avoid vacancy periods!

Since this will be a cash buy, do I need a seasoning period for a DSCR refi?
