The part I slightly disagree on is being cognizant of who might rent your units as it’s important and will impact your rents/repairs/vacancies/headaches/etc.

One way to approach (often intense) negotiations and timelines is to consider the parties on the other side.

Communication by all parties is key. 

Payments are to be handled by outside/3rd party escrow (mortgage, taxes, insurance, etc), vendor to be determined prior to close of this escrow.  

As a result, I'm getting booked a lot by women (bachelorette parties, family trips) and my revenue has really beat expectations.

On that note: If you hire a third party to cold call make sure that they are abiding by the DNC list as well.

The house was an inheritance from a trust so not a sale and not on good terms with the other parties.  

Stephanie I know I am late to the party but there are certain tax implications with HELOCs, I would make sure you understand those before diving in. 

Just got off with an investor who was about to wire us money from Yieldstreet but his account with them is now frozen until further notice.Apparently they use a third party to escrow all funds and that company has just filed for bankruptcy.This is really unfortunate for those investors who are exposed. 

The Intermediary can then sell the note to any party, including the seller or a seller's family/friends.
