Hey all,Does anyone have any personal experience with First Savings Bank and their 1st lien HELOC?  

Is it because it's a 2 bedroom or is it because it's in a better location and looks better in online pictures. 

Have these guys ever heard of Quicken or any of the online personal finance programs available to track spending?

I am currently working/studying on getting my RE license online.

I'm not sure I'd want to go past 10 STRs ever and I'm trying to decide if it's worth Co-Hosting or just save up for the next one.

More and more I see buyers look online, drive out to the house, and then while sitting in front of the house, CALL. 

There is a lot of conflicting info online in regards to these situations. 

These firms with large online presences use fear mongering techniques to sell services without ever fully explaining how their entity structures actually benefit the client.

I'm not sure why you are so bothered by someone sharing their experience online.
