I have spent the last 6 months reading everything Real Estate book I can, listening to Real Estate podcasts (and doing my own ~ The Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise Podcast ~), SAVING MONEY, and networking in my local REIA to prepare for this.

I stocked the house over the past two months with enough food and supplies for more than 3 months, sent my healthy teenager to live with my healthy young adult son the minute school closed, and am on extraordinarily strict lockdown with my husband and daughter (who is on immunosuppressive medication).

If you are even reasonably savvy with technology and you start with a good property to begin with, assuming you're in any kind of reasonably healthy economic area, managing is a serious low-hour endeavor.

I hope you're both healthy during this crazy time. 

@David Rohrer To be intimated, to fear, is healthy. 

I'm interested in the area solely because of what Metro Health is doing.

For this reason, you want to make sure that you are getting good cash flow on both properties and do not over-leverage.In other words, before you take out that HELOC on the first property, make sure that its still going to give you a healthy positive cash flow once the new loan payments kick in. 

I agree with @Todd Rasmussen, Unless the property will spit off a healthy cash flow not sure why you'd want it sub2 if it's 10k overleveraged. 

The mean reason for business failures are usually undercapitalization meaning they run out of money before they can figure out a system and successful process for growing and scaling while maintaining healthy profit levels.TI's can vary greatly.

Don't over leverage, take enough out to get the downpayment healthy on the next one.
