@Ben StanleyGet liquid first start by saving money in a taxable account

I've been looking at foreclosure auctions.  1) If I wanted to use my HELOC to bid on a property and with my LLC in mind, I'm leaning to having to fund my LLC using the HELOC, with my bid price in mind (plus other costs) and then bidding on a property and if successful, write a check from my business account.

What would you recommend as the best strategy for accounting for this situation as we file taxes for the 2023 tax year.
