Hi Chris,Yes, after you purchase the property you could take out a HELOC however the bank may not offer that to you right away, you would want to check with whichever bank you would be applying for the HELOC through.

If you don't see that type of house as money in the bank this isn't for you.We are looking for:>> Character, honesty and integrity>> Someone fun to work with>> Self-starter that likes to work hard for the reward>> Willingness to learn and get out of the box to be successful>> Motivated by money and willing to work for it>> Reliable transportation, working cell phone, laptop computer and camera >> Feel safe driving into lower priced neighborhoods>> Flexible schedule to get the job done when needed>> Organized, able to manage a calendar and be on time to appointments >> Good people skills, friendly>> There's probably more, but we can flush that out in an interview If you're interested in learning more, please send:1.

We got an offer from a buyer for $200K, with these terms: $30K cash down paymentInterest only owner-financing at 5% for a 12 month term or when the building permit is ready to go, whichever is first.

Whichever you can find the best deal on.  

In order to permit tenants to adjust to the possibility of unregulated rents, and to address the potential for abuse of the owner-occupancy exemption by landlords who are motivated to move into a property to gain an exemption just to increase rent and not to reside in the property, this exemption should not take effect for one year after the amendment to This chapter exempting these rental units is adopted, or one year after the landlord begins owner-occupancy, whichever is later.I'm not sure you answered my specific question, but you have brought the above paragraph to my attention which looks like it directly applies to me NOW being exempt from Oakland's rent control and the "Just Cause for Eviction Ordinance" since I moved back in and Owner occupy one of the two units.

Don't ever give it to them, just use it as a tool so that they see that you're serious. let them know that you have the earnest money in hand, and can open title as soon as you're done there, or the next morning, whichever is appropriate to the time of day you're visiting.  

Thanks @Shayne Brescia ...I'm all for getting a DC license, but I'm under the impression that if I take the class and get the DC license, then decide I want to do one of the states, I have to go back and do the class in whichever state and take their test to get my license there. 

I had the idea of having a google # on the flyer that links to my cell phone and my office #. 

@Dawn Brenengen Hi Dawn, believe it or not it was done with my cell phone.
