It is now paid for, is worth triple my purchase price, and provides about $60K a year in rents.  

No paid apps anyway.

The most important rule is to have the cash flow of the new property be able to pay all its expenses, mortgage, AND the line of credit back.

Here’s the situation:Purchase Price: $540,000Down Payment: 20%Mortgage Rate: 7.125% (30-year fixed)Monthly Expenses (Mortgage, HOA, Taxes, Insurance): $3,706Realistic Max Rent: $3,000As you can see, I’m currently short $706/month even with max rent.

@Trevor McCormick to piggyback off what others have said, determine if you are trying to maximize it as an investment or utilize it as a vacation home you will STR to help cover expenses, as this could dictate which type of property you are looking for. 

am working with them now and had the first policy (with Spinnaker) cancelled for nonpayment/late payment so we rewrote another policy (with Millenial) and having the same payment problem again but at least they are communicating that cancellation is coming. they want me to pay by credit card over the phone so the payment wont be late and cancelled again. but when i go to mycoverageinfo.com to check on status it shows its been paid.

There's usually a good reason why a company is cheaper or more expensive.

He said there shouldn't be any repairs and whenever there were repairs, he paid for the materials and had them be installed.

Take a bit of that money and invest in learning - go to meetups and the many events that take place related to investing in the city - some for free and some paid.

I would like to purchase another property so I looked into a heloc and a cash out refinance and it looks like I would qualify for about 75000 max which would be enough to put a down payment on another property and rehab it, but I still haven’t paid myself back from the original property rehab.
