Lender was good, but I also have little experience with lenders, so none that I would fully endorse at this time.

Wow, @Jay Hinrichs thanks for the endorsement, I guess I must be doing something right to generate such kind remarks.

FYI……..On the front of check I wrote "FULL and FINAL Payment" …and then ….on the back where he endorsed I wrote " Payment in FULL for security deposit return for lease @Address".He cashed the check today….I can sleep better now.

They bought liability insurance for their company but their insurance agent forgot to buy an endorsement in their policy to cover them personally as well, so they were left in a lurch. 

Checks from the insurance will be made out to you and the lender and both will have to endorse. 

Its essentially like a credit card using the equity you have in your home.I will list a few Heloc programs below (I'm not endorsing just giving you some examples).

FYI: This is not an endorsement.  

. - Any recommendations on PMs (not sure if this question is allowed here = endorsements)You help is much appreciated!

If you're willing to offer recourse a good option may be available in the SBA program:http://www.hbclending.com/sba-7a-loan/I simply provided that link as a reference and not an endorsement of that particular lender

I have attended a 3 day work shop put on by Success Path which is endorsed by Tarek and Christina El Moussa of the TV Show Flip or Flop.
