I am now handling all my props myself saving let's just say a few bux each month., 

I am a retired RE Broker with decades in the business and thinking of returning to it as either a Wholesaler or a Fix and Flipper, areas I have completed before and have experience in, and, having performed a lot of due diligence, I once again have been confronted by con men saying they are not gurus then try to sell me a service at $97 per month, or $129 p/m ( billed annually, with no trial period and no refund which comes out to being charged (1,548.00 ) along with other shysters charging upwards of $20,000 for a level in which I could actually MEET the Guru and bow before him in abject humility and profess my undying devotion to him for his enlightenment, while making my wallet lighter and my stress greater.

It also saves you the hassle of trying to locate the owner.

For me, Down Payment and Closing Cost, Since I am young and want this to be my retirement, I want to buy as much now and hold forever.

I’ll have $50K saved and $8,000 in credit lines.

I agree with what most everyone has said, hiring a lawyer will save you money in the long run.

Just be 💯 certain that you'll be able to refi that HELOC debt off when the time comes.However...At this stage in your investment career, I would URGE you not to sign up for negative cashflow in the hope that "the market" will save you.
