This might also allow for me tor really dive into other DIY projects like swapping out toilets,vanities,sinks, etc... as I have never done any!..

And we always swap out old fuse boxes.

One large regional bank is offering a 1.61% HELOC special for new customers, most are offering a prime minus 0.25% for customers that also setup a checking account for auto-draw.In swapping one HELOC for another I was told that you do not need to pay off your current HELOC, at closing the new HELOC provider will pay off the former HELOC holder.

We occasionally had trailers we were swapping out.  

Hoping to establish a partnership where I swap leads for searchs on the MLS.

@Rich Hupper, what you're describing is a true swap of properties and equity and debt.  

Minneapolis, but I've been looking everywhere in the metro West of 35W (family, work, and school are all West).Tony, I'd love to swap out 3.5% for 20%, but I don't have the money for 20% down on a property in the 300's.

Also, don't forget that they need sufficient mental capacity to transfer title when the time does come to sell.In the meantime, I'd buy the other half with seller financing or swap other property or assets for the equity.

@Janie Escalante @Renato SilvaWelcome Renato, and JanieI'm new as well done 3 deals so far, also from Houston/Katy area. we can swap contacts and may be we can help each other.

On my MFU, the city fire marshal did an annual inspection and I swapped smoke alarm batteries and fire extinguishers at that time.
