Deductible expenses include a proportional share of mortgage interest, property taxes, insurance, utilities, and repairs.

I just paid off my last utility bill.

Monthly expenses will include mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance, utilities (if applicable), maintenance, and reserves for repairs.You’ll need at least 3.5% for an FHA loan or 20% for a conventional loan, plus cash reserves.

Damage after deposit, legal charge, skip out, unpaid utilities lists go forever.... and of course eviction process takes at least 60~90 days here while lawyers are asking $600 to just start with the case. 

So I'm asking, What is the best way to utilize the results they both gave me and narrow it down?

@Jay Hinrichs is correct.However, the following seasoning periods are what I am working with on the DSCR programs that I utilize for my clients.

I have decided to look into a heloc, I'm a bit newer into realest state investing, I have completed a couple of fix%flips this year, I currently use hard money for the purchase with 10% down and I cover 100% of the rehab, with that said even just doing a couple of homes at a time, I find myself around 200k out of pocket, I think it would be a bit easier on myself and wife if we utilized a heloc vs just cash, my primary should appraise around 1.1m and my mortgage is 640k, I'm looking at pulling about 250k for a heloc, I don't want to refi the home and cash out as I only want to pay interest on funds as I use them ( I know I won't always be using the heloc cash) Any advice or even knowledge for people in a similar situation, and anyone have a referral for a Heloc?

Hey all - I'm new to the RE investing game and have some (probably dumb) questions regarding cash on cash returns. As some background, I'm looking for turnkey or close to it and would be using a management company sin...

Validate planning zoning requirements and access to utilities.  

What do you think about refinancing FHA loan into conventional in order to utilize FHA loan again or does there have to be waiting period?
