If you're priced below alternative properties, you shouldn't be having a problem selling.

So what you saying is that homes that are bought at the tax sale are pointless for investors to buy that have outstanding mortgages because the new owner will be having to satisfy the mortgage?

Find out what this investor needs and what issues or problems she may be having and attempt to solve such problems through the deal.

To make BRRRR, you need to be have your All-In Costs need to be at 70% of ARV and fit the 1% rule.

Or you used it to flip or BRRR where you are only going to be having a balance on the account until the property sells.Using a HELOC for long term buy and hold seems like a bad and risky plan...variable interest rate..... if the market crashes your primary residence is tied to the rental property, so you could lose both etc.That's my understanding of the "best" ways to utilize a HELOC

It would not be logical in my opinion to be having a conversation about the concern of someone coming back and driving off with their modular home, if it were in fact a modular home.

@Roni Elias I will be having my contractor walk the property Monday with me.

I think its somewhat a personal choice and surly when your young in your prime earning years are your desire is to leverage and grow.. then debt is a necessity.. for me personally I take on no long term liabilities  I usually have quite a bit of short term debt IE construction loans.. which as long as the market behaves create more cash flow for me in 9 months then the same dollars in drip income would over a ten year hold... but you know risk reward.. its always there.for me personally my long term contingent liabilities are less than 5% of my net worth and will soon be Zero.

Our dogs are old, lazy, well-behaved, and not allowed on any furniture/beds, so I'm hoping they won't hinder our ability to find a place.

Jacob Barnhart what you could also do is reach out to the seller and see if you can reach a verbal agreement on financing and price and, if so, let them know you will be having your agent send them over a formal offer with all specifics including any contingencies you might need.
