It was the boost I needed to grow fast.To get started, I partnered with experienced equity raisers.

And my rental cash flow went from only $1500/month to 19k/month profit by taking on more loans and harvesting the equity in some of my properties including my primary.

Trying to get into the nuts and bolts of how he was trying to source a location, project size of preference, what type of financial modeling he does, what kind of tenants he was hoping to attract/the strategy behind it, if he was doing any joint ventures or had done any in the past, if he had taken part in any syndications, what management strategies he was implementing with his current properties to maximize lease uptime and profit, what types of leases he generally favored contracting for his properties--all of that was like pulling teeth.

A majority of people who rent homes here have 100% equity in them so any rent will cash flow.

Judges favor the seller.

Both of our properties have about 100k in equity in them so we were thinking about using getting a HELOC on the duplex rental property and use that money for the down payment on the next property.

I currently live in it as my primary residence but had plans to eventually rent it out and then cash out refi once I reach 20% equity in the property.

Heck, my company added Equity Lines when I walked into three bank branches for an Equity Line for a pool and I couldn't find someone that knew how to take the application.

I would also find it hard to want to sell a property that has an estimated $155k in equity this early on.
