Anyone have some good tips for wholesaling around a full time job?

Purchase price: $150,000 Cash invested: $90,000 Bought as a forclosure gut job.

My question is how can someone be so far off on value and continue to keep their job? 

Quote from @Michael Klick: Quote from @Jonathan Greene: HELOCs are fine, but keep in mind that you really only want to use 50 percent of less (each) of your available equity just so you aren't creating a problem that you can't solve later if the value of your personal residences fluctuates.If you both have W2 jobs though, have you looked into getting qualified together and just getting a loan, 10 percent down each?

Be nice if they zoned certain areas that this would be allowed in.

Nice folks and a lot of knowledge to go around. 

If the home has a really nice layout or beautiful interior and it's not getting many showings, I would definitely recommend a video tour.

The bank and mortgage company we are using is giving us a hard time about us co-signing due to my separation and new job due to only having been separated a couple weeks now.

Nice work!

In Houston, you can either invest locally or explore strong Texas markets like San Antonio (affordable duplexes, strong job market), DFW suburbs (duplex-friendly zoning, growing economy), or Houston suburbs (Spring, Cypress, The Woodlands for good schools and tenant demand).
