Okay, they may not tell you everything, loans are financial products and are sold to qualified customers much like insurance.Some HELOCs may be called or adjusted if;You miss a payment(s)You take bankruptcyYour credit has a significant changeYour home value decreasesYou have an insured loss (small fire for example)Taxes are not paidInsurance lapsesThe lender's underwriting requirements changeA HELOC is a line of credit, a promise to advance funds in the future subject to the conditions that existed at the time of the commitment was given remain the same.You can avoid many of the advancing issues by taking the full amount available up front when it's made.

Still, the reputation of poor quality remains.

The homeowner is unwilling to do a lease/purchase.I'm looking for a solution now because I do not think that this particular house will remain on the market for very long.

The remaining 50% is used to pay your P&I payment (taxes and insurance are in the first chunk) and give you some profit.Now, property management is a big chunk of that 50%.

This is very motivating.

I have a contract Im getting ready to secure this coming weekend from a motivated seller and going to market the crap out of it and lease option it to a buyer...

You might try John's method with the expireds, might save some money knowing they were motivated to sell.Hit up older landlords, 60+, they need to retire, buy from them and might sell to thier tenant, wrap it.

We typically do trim, doors and ceiling in one color; sometimes kitchen in its own color; sometimes all bathrooms in another color; and then all the remaining interior walls the same color.

I've learned that you can just about straight out ask sellers their motivation and in my experience 99% of the time they'll tell you the truth.

Hey BP, here are my two question to those of you who are finding great deals by marketing to motivated sellers...1) Based on standard sales you could find on the MLS, what would monthly rent be as a percentage of market value?
