Either way, we’ll know in a week, and I’ll keep this forum updated.

Keep in mind, everyone needs a place to live in landlords provide a service of providing those places and keeping them in good shape, updating it, etc.  

I stay away from curtains as they can get dirty easily but I update the shades themselves to something nicer (plantation or shutter like shades or good quality roll down shades - black out in the bedroom).

Coloma @Ryan McKenna  Any update with your loan guys experience?

The contract promises to make payments to you over an agreed period of time.

It appears that fincen has neglected to update (at least) that page.  

None of us are as smart as we think we are when an investment goes right.Lastly, I'll borrow a thought from Morgan Housel - don't seek the investments with the best returns; seek the investments that will allow me to make an average return for the longest period of time.

The biggest difference here is that you'll pay P+I on the entire loan amount immediately with a cash out, but you'll only pay interest on what you draw on the HELOC during your draw period.

Thought I’d update.  

- Any tips for staying updated on regulation changes?
