Her health is OK, but it's going to drop quickly if we don't find a way to get her active and lose some weight. 

It sounds like you navigated the challenges well and gained valuable lessons for your next venture.

I wish I could say that I'm venturing into real estate investing for some benevolent purpose like providing low-income housing for the needy... but financial gain is certainly my angle lol.

From what I've learned it seems that a HELOC is probably the easiest way to gain funding but at the same time it comes with risks if the flip isn't successful. 

I'm looking to gain momentum and scale fairly quickly.I'm going to try rentredi and quicken to manage the numbers.

Cultivate strong relationships with brokers to gain access to off-market deals and increase your deal flow.

@Jason Wray Thank you very much for this response ..I’ve never sold one of my rentals before feels like I’m cutting off a leg and paying close to 100k for cap gains is really starting to eat at me 😵‍💫Any chance you would be so kind as to send me a link to something in the ballpark of what you’re suggesting this way I can get an idea of area and what this type of property could look like!

It's pretty much why I'm putting myself out there on here, which to gain insight on other's experiences with working a dual agent deal.

You’d also make all future capital gains at least partially taxable instead of tax exempt by converting your primary to a rental.

I think you’ll find it incredibly valuable and gain a lot of insights from it.Being on bigger pockets and listening to the rookie podcasts have been the most helpful for me.
