Personal Property coverage- furniture, lawnmowers, signage, etc. 

Overall I would personally consider how I can still grow with the freedom that I have focusing on my real estate.

We purchased it off market, as-is, and as it was our personal home, we renovated over time.

Hi @Mary HollandDSCR loans are a great option for real estate investors since they focus on the property's income potential rather than personal income.

I kind of didn't want to mention that on the listing so that it wouldn't turn people away before they even had a chance to see it in person.  

Ideally you would put only one persons name on the mortgage unless you absolutely had to have both to qualify.  

I use it for my personal portfolio as well.

I got a deal on labor as I know the contractor personally and helped out a bit with the project.

Personally, If I could pull out a HELOC, I would use it to fix and flip which will typically make sense as you shouldnt be keeping the money out for that long and you can recycle it or pay it back and build off the capital that you got from. the flip.

But it sounds like you should also balance your decision on what fits you and your families preference and style since you will be using it personally. 2.
