1) make the payment directly from my HELOC account2) transfer the money from HELOC to business checking account, and then make the payment from my business checking account. not an accountant, but from a tax perspective I see no benefit of one from the other, interest would not be deductible.if you are using a LLC, then money should go to the LLC but if you are buying it in your personal name and transferring then reality is there is no separation of LLC and person so you have fake asset protection.

No investment properties, this is my first purchase also why I'm using a GC to hopefully alleviate some experience concerns.

If you are using a FHA, you are only putting 5% down which will make it even harder to cash flow. 

I am a new investor just put in an offer on a deal (waiting to hear back), I have some cash but I will be using a hard money lender.

Once you pay that mortgage each month, the accrued interest goes to zero for that month in essence.I just did a cash out refinance on a rental house using a DSCR product, literally closed yesterday, so 15 days of interest was due on top of the principal. 

I'd be curious to hear from the pros on how this law will affect this group of agents and how folks like me, who will be using a flat-fee agency, should handle working with them when it comes to commissions?

Would it be advisable to sell one of the investment properties to finance this, or should I explore using a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)?

I strayed away from them when they changed hands and tried using a couple of other HW companies and came back to OneGuard.

You can also consider finding a vacant building and using a construction loan to renovate it like new.Regarding the comment that the current climate to buy is bad- I"'ve been on this forum for some years- And each year someone says the climate to buy is bad. 

My name is Casey Nelson, I am new to all this, but I am very serious in getting started.Bought my first house in Bonner’s ferry Idaho for 25k out 50 into it using a heloc from said house and then sold it for $227k 1.5 years later.
