My initial thought is we would take out an equity line of credit after we buy the first building and leverage that for the second building.

Initially my thoughts were to decrease the repair cost estimate I received from the contractor by 10k then recalculate the value.

I hate to do that, since she has work super hard for the initial deal!

The filing and maintenance fees will run a few hundred initially and a couple hundred per year (depending on the state).  

Dont look for the truth .This was my initial thought, too.

Will my interest rate change for the initial primary residence loan that I am moving out of?

I am considering doing my own escrow and financing the entire property through the HELOC because the initial rate offer of 8.64% is high in my opinion.

They are very comprehensive and pretty much babied me through the whole process (initial setup with property management, repairs, and finding a tenant) all within a 3-4 weeks.  

Change the first page of the contract to read "Matthew Fleming and/or assigns" (or whatever your company name is) and have them initial it!  

@Shane H.Initially I was thinking your were selling yourself very short, as it was initially indicated that you were to "help finance the deal", which lead me to believe that you were providing all of the capital (either in cash or loans in your name).
