I manage it daily to update base pricing and see what the market is doing, but I wholeheartedly recommend if you want to maximize revenue and get to maximum capacity.Mindy @Collin Hays I respect your position and for sure everyone should run their biz according to their own values. 

You have used home equity lines of credit to purchase investment rentals and want to know the best way to pay down the HELOCs.Between the two properties you bought, after expenses, you have $250 a month positive cashflow to use.What I like to do is pay down some principal every month with my positive cashflow.I use my extra active income from real estate commissions helping other investors to pay down the principal even more which just frees up that credit for me to use again.I know I can refinance the HELOC debt before it changes to principal and interest as it is just interest only payments as yours are.One difference is the cashflow, I have greater positive cashflow and could make the principal and interest payment in the future with the extra cashflow I already enjoy.I always get HELOCs on my income properties as well after purchasing them to pull out as much of my downpayment as possible.

They get a higher return since they are covering housing cost, have the $250k per spouse primary residence deduction in gains, is a savings account, higher leverage position, lower interest rate possible, will pay more premium for location, etc.House might be overpriced for REITs but not for home owners.  

In my search, I've noticed that many positions require proficiency in Yardi.I've been actively looking for effective ways to learn Yardi, but it seems challenging to find suitable training or courses online.

With some changes to the management structure and leadership, I believe we can significantly increase the revenue potential while providing a positive impact.

Again I am not advocating for this company and each person needs to do their own DD, all I am saying is I appreciated someone seeing something, calling me on it and having a conversation about it. if @Cheryl Abram  lost 100% of her investment then these must not be first position loans.. as even if a rehab fix and flip fails you still have SOME value in the assset its not nothing.

This is typically HIGHER than option one. 

I think a better option is to get a job in property management.

If you need an option that isn't as document heavy, a DSCR cash-out might be a viable option if it's an investment property.

This could turn a potential loss into positive cash flow while protecting your property’s value.
