Ideally you have a mixture of both.

. :)I think you do a mixture of using your $25k (assuming they won't require you to have reserves) and ALSO get a HELOC.  

Part of the reason I break it up that way is that no one charge looks like its too much and there is a mixture of paying up front as well as paying as you go (pet rent).

I went to Owens Corning to talk about the 30-year shingles that are falling apart, streaking, and separating after 8 years.  

That would be ground producing corn at150 bushel per acre average.

The tenant was excited about the new floor but until it's in there a while I won't know if that will solve the issue.We use a mixture of flooring types depending on where it is.

We lived in Southern Indiana in a corn field past Bloomington for 12 years.

It's been a mixture of in-person and virtual meetings.

With how volatile the world has become, even if you just put it in a mixture of high interest savings or roth IRA, you'll still have access to those funds and they can make you some money at the same time. 

I want a good mixture of all the above.
