The tenant finally realized the phone lines are behind some wall plate blanks so they just need to terminate to RJ11 jacks and all is well.

But if you are not in the same range, you will most likely waste everyone's time. 

We will need to do the flooring, dry wall, build the baths and kitchens, everything.I have a few different options here I guess, wanted some feedback and possible guidance on some pros/cons. 1) I have been doing some research to try and find out how to possible get a HELOC on my rental property that I have now.

Those generate a high volume of calls, but they're not legal in many places AND the majority of those calls are a waste of time. 

Hi Mike, Don't waste your money on an appraisal, it wont be valid as you have hired your own appraiser.

You should have the property under contract before you get bids, otherwise you're wasting your time and the contractors.    

This is because they don't want to waste their time.

I find myself visiting the vacancy/waste mail area often these days.=]

As far as networking with wholesalers i keep running into people with claimed "deals" that really are a waste of time.
