Because it takes repetition for people to remember things and you have to be top-of-mind when they encounter a potential client for you!

A potential challenge with a HELOCs is they are based on the current appraised value of your home, not the improved value, so you would need to make sure you have enough accessible equity.

Buy at a discount given the lack of building potential and can always pass that discount along when I sell.2.

Just like going to a doctor and them saying "this is gonna hurt", you do not like them telling you, but i would rather be told them have them do it and me scream WTF that hurt, why did you not tell me.The other area where people can overcome this is by actually managing the asset and portfolio and showing your investors that.

Before purchasing a rental property carefully evaluate the appreciation potential.

(We are working on a generalized survey to collect info on our buyers/potential buyers so we can make sure we understand who our customers are while trying to dial in their preferences and patterns.)You are doing great things. 

One potential mentor I had one phone call with and never contacted him again. 

If the property has solid appreciation potential or you're building equity while learning the ropes, it could still be a good deal.

Something with more doors and more potential.

@Tanner KingWhen I analyze a house hack deal, I focus on metrics like GRM, Cap Rate, Cash Flow, House Hack Savings, and Future Rent Potential.
