I would use the HELOC for a down payment on the prospective investment property and then try to secure a conventional loan(right??).

My question is, should I pay-off my primary residence mortgage to 1)Get peace of mind and some sort of security 2)Opportunity to borrow from my equity if needed 3) Extra cashflow to save and invest in another rental property in the future OR should I keep my primary residence mortgage (due to the low interest rate) and purchase another rental property instead?

Granted the ordinance was enacted and repealed in the past 60 days, we're all just kind of waiting for the new ordinance that continues to place financial responsibility for repairing infrastructure on homeowners.  

Granted the duplex will throw off more cash but you'll work your tail off for that.

I'm fine with combing the market for deals, just trying to find a way to legally secure financing without a due on sale clause raining on my parade.

The journey's been exciting on my end, especially helping investors secure the financing they need.

It’s important to work with someone who not only offers the right terms but also makes you feel secure in the process.

There are also many other platforms other than Real Auction, some of those are Grand Street Group, SRI, **********, etc.those platforms manage tax sales auction for different states and counties, so you have to check them out daily or weekly.with Fastlien you have everything at your fingertips, download tax sale lists, calendar view of all the upcoming auctions, I find it much easier and less time-consuming.regardsEmanuel Wijkhuisen You are correct, there are web sites for the auction of tax liens other then those on the Realauction site, including Grant Street (not Grand). 

I’m also exploring the idea of starting a nonprofit dedicated to this mission—helping youth get acclimated to real estate investing and setting them up for a financially secure future.If anyone in this community is interested in contributing or being involved in such a venture, I’d love to connect and discuss how we can make a bigger impact together.

I have $70K of my own money I can use as a down-payment, but am looking for someone to finance the rest ($280K) as I'm a real estate agent and am having difficulty securing a loan from a traditional bank in a timely matter.
