But if you took a HELOC, which tends to have relatively high interest rates, your blended rate (the average of what you're paying on your mortgage plus the rate on the HELOC) would likely be in the same range as today's mortgage rate.You'd also only be renting out one unit, but by selling it might allow you to get more than one additional unit and still grow your portfolio. 

Partner Driven was interested in the Jenner Cir deal in Modesto, CA, due to its high profit potential.

It highly depends on the type of loan and lender.

But the idea of asset protection is to not pay out and not let plaintiff’s be able to exercise a judgment against you.

But it seems that property taxes will increase extraordinarily high next year and coupling that with expensive home owners insurance.

Hi @Dana Boyd Both have quality data.

I live in the Daytona Beach area & finding something turnkey for sale that will cash flow is very difficult, the prices are still too high.

I would highly suggest NOT doing Windsor at Westside.

Tax sales may not get a lot of activity but whet it lacks in volume it makes up ten fold in quality.

Ultimately I do not want to be over leveraged, stuck paying a high mortgage for extended time, or live in a home that needs work I can’t fund what are your thoughts and recommendations for how I should structure my first purchase?
