With many things where you live and  have the most access can make a difference in whether or not something turns out to be a good investment or not. 

A fully paid off property which now should be worth at least $300K with appreciation, I can access 75% of that with a cash out refi so roughly $225K - refi costs.To me, its a no brainer to do bi-weekly IF you plan to keep the house for that long AND you do not plan to refinance (rate or cash out).

You can end up locking up access to equity and cause your buying power to become frozen due to DTI or an adjustable rate.

I would just ask them if you buy an older version will your files will be usable/accessible if you don't renew.  

It's also a standard form that real estate agents have access to through their realtor associations.  5.

The intent is torefinance them once I am done with the rehabs and I want to stay clear of theseasoning restrictions often seen on conventional loans.

I’m super excited to get started in real estate to have access to this community!

I looked at the zoning code and there is no restrictions on locks, kitchens, or being related. 

Both units have access to laundry, a 2-car garage, and a parking pad.

I have an extensive network of properties and being a licensed realtor myself I have access to things that aren't brought to market How did you finance this deal?
