I would venture a guess that many investors believe that agents who cover the same territory are competitors, however as I'm sure you are aware that there is more success in collaboration as agents than competition.

I handle St Augustine/Ponte Vedra/Palm Coast but can certainly help with Jacksonville and based on your goals there may be other opportunities to explore.To cover off insurance from previous comments, the market has changed and it is competitive with new carriers entering the market. 

I have decided to look into a heloc, I'm a bit newer into realest state investing, I have completed a couple of fix%flips this year, I currently use hard money for the purchase with 10% down and I cover 100% of the rehab, with that said even just doing a couple of homes at a time, I find myself around 200k out of pocket, I think it would be a bit easier on myself and wife if we utilized a heloc vs just cash, my primary should appraise around 1.1m and my mortgage is 640k, I'm looking at pulling about 250k for a heloc, I don't want to refi the home and cash out as I only want to pay interest on funds as I use them ( I know I won't always be using the heloc cash) Any advice or even knowledge for people in a similar situation, and anyone have a referral for a Heloc?

My idea to buy a home is to get an 80% LTV 1st mortgage from a bank, take over that mortgage and give the seller a second mortgage for 50% of the 1st mortgage balance because I need some cash to cover the payments, which the amount of cash would be more than the remaining equity in the home.

I got my first one with a 5% down while the tenants were covering almost all of my mortgage.

Big picture, however, I am building a plan and team to invest in strong markets with lower entry prices to BRRRR 5+ unit multi families.

Your current pictures are dark, it looks like the photographer is standing in the middle of the room taking a picture of the corner, and the angles are not attractive.

The one to four is a very comprehensive contract that covers everything and even has room for special provisions when something out of the ordinary needs to be spelled out.When doing not so normal purchases like a sub-to, I dont use the TREC, but one that I created from several other contracts.

Unfortunately, many make the mistake of solely looking at the numbers when that is not the entire picture.

Seems like a lot of folks prefer SFH, but I bought a Townhouse because it seems like it is easier to maintain (HOA covers external, landscaping, and neighborhood amenities).
