I would be leveraging my relationship with my family member to wholesale the property for experience and getting them for investment in my real estate business while my family member gets rid of a property, hassle free, while getting paid.

I work 11-12 hour shifts, five days a week, in a demanding role, leaving me with little free time.

-- We focus on verifying 2-year work history and verifying rent payments with last 2 landlords (unless in same property for 5+ years).3) MoveIn Specials: be careful with offering "free rent" as will just attract tenants with no cash.-- Try free TV or something else worth 25-50% of one month of rent.-- Or, what we do is offer the free rent AFTER & ONLY if they pay their first 3 months of rent on time to earn it.4) Lower the rent 5% every 2-4 weeks until activity picks up.5) Understand this is the worst time of year to find tenants.-- Starts picking back up end of February when this tenant pool starts getting their income tax refunds and aren't broke anymore.6) Section 8: where is the property being advertised?

I am trying to find a software and thought the same thing - let's try RentRedi since it is free through my BP pro membership.  

I took the 3 day class in Hartford a few years ago because it was free for veterans so I signed up.

Be sure to check out the free tools BP provides to help analyze deals you may have and also market insights.

Generally speaking, these are roughly $1500 / pier give or take depending on the crawl space height.If you need anything - feel free to reach out to me (contact info in bio).

He's great".I recently went to a conference (that fortunately was free) where a really famous name in the flip space talked for an hour about how important relationships and authenticity are in the real estate business.

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.
