You have used home equity lines of credit to purchase investment rentals and want to know the best way to pay down the HELOCs.Between the two properties you bought, after expenses, you have $250 a month positive cashflow to use.What I like to do is pay down some principal every month with my positive cashflow.I use my extra active income from real estate commissions helping other investors to pay down the principal even more which just frees up that credit for me to use again.I know I can refinance the HELOC debt before it changes to principal and interest as it is just interest only payments as yours are.One difference is the cashflow, I have greater positive cashflow and could make the principal and interest payment in the future with the extra cashflow I already enjoy.I always get HELOCs on my income properties as well after purchasing them to pull out as much of my downpayment as possible.

Quote from @Jemini Leckie: Hello, I am trying to understand the Orem, city code to determine if I am allowed to rent my basement ADU that I currently live in two a couple cousins and their friend.

Another option is to sell one or two of them to pay off your LOC and then keep just one.

So first, can you do this without the other two partners or with just one of them?

I know two other investors with same problems. 

I’ve recently undertaken to paint 3 units, two 2 bedrooms and one 1 bedroom.

As already mentioned, you could sell via seller financing to lower AGI, as all you would have to claim is the payment income - until balloon payment received.Did know an investor that had 14 properties paid off and he moved into one every two years to then sell with the $250k single exemption.

Hi, long time follower, however not too much on posting.Goal: I’m looking to purchase a 3 family property in central CT.Position: Currently I own two condominiums that are under an LLC.

Great people, intuitive platform, get their K1s out on time and returns have met expectations...one of the reasons I am invested in two funds at this point as the first investment was really to test the waters and validate I was a good fit.  

Being a super host and knowing how to place claims are two different things.
