Hey William just started here on bp from marlton lakes, have 2 single family's currently and just got my approval for a heloc for the next 2 but I would like to check out that event maybe keep the heloc in reserve if there are other options for me.

Not a specific book but podcasts and discussion threads on how to compute CoC, what expenses to account for and estimating rehab costs were the most valuable learnings for me.
