I've been back and forth with my insurance provider and the underwriters from the institution I am using for the HELOC.

I am using different ways to find leads for off-market property while looking a rental investment property and they brought me my first deal which I am working on with my agent hoping to close soon.I do get other potential deals from my marketing which either do not match with my specific search (area, type of product,...) or that I can't / don't want to take myself.

I'm in the process of a SFH BRRRR right now and I am using 10% (of $1300 rent) for CAPEX and 10% for mainteance -- too high, too low, just right?

I am using to narrow my focus initially to larger Cities with population >40K+ and with positive population growth trend. 

I am using handymen instead of contractors for the majority of it.

Hi,I don't have access to the MLS and I am using Zillow to analyze comps.

@David Barnett @Anthony Rosa That's a very typical tactic by folks of their like-mind; it never fails to amuse me haha. 

I am using this house as more of a learning experience than anything, practicing and developing a start of a management plan, testing out different ways to collect rent, resolving tenant issues, etc.

Now, I am using the cashflow from both rentals plus my whole life policy loan to buy a property to fix and flip in the next two months.    

Based on a BP episode I listened to recently, this is only OK when I (or my spouse) am a real estate professional, or I am using Short Term Rental loop hole.
