Quote from @Nicholas Burch: Try message desk https://messagedesk.com/ Yup agree with this one!

I agree with @Tom ThomsonAlso, Is this a STR or LTR?

I agree that they should list, but they don't for a lot of reasons: speed, out of state, embarrassment, etc.

Think of every worst case and talk about it now, as people are calm now and can agree.

We've helped with VA loans across the country and have options for you in AL.

We put 35% down and the owners agreed to finance the rest interest only with a payoff schedule of two yearsHow did you add value to the deal?

Solid advice, agreed short term lending product and 10x better than a HML at a higher rate plus points. 

I agree leverage over leverage is dangerous especially if it's tied to primary.Rather than using HELOC as downpayment for a BRRRR project, better to use loan from 401k and/or Portfolio LOC.

I agree with everyone else.

I fund BRRRR deals for investors all over the country though and Cincinnati and Birmingham are certainly on the list of usual suspects in terms of being top 10 BRRRR markets.
