The majority of landlords don't list rentals on the MLS.

lets see no money down interest only... well that was a go to product in 04 to 06 it was called pic a payment.you get get neg am or interest only or fully amortized you picked the payment. you could do no doc just needed decent credit.. first and second  etc etc.. those loans no longer exist and for very good reason.

This past week, the basement became partially flooded, damaging family stuff I had stored down there and building products we had left over.

@Ron Fletcher I'd reach out to @Andrew Syrios as they bought almost the majority of a dev in Kansas City.

I run a couple of corporate rentals and was told that Georgia law states I can only have 2 people in a one bedroom apartment but that was for long term leases.Is there a law that states I can have up to 4 people if it is short term (less than 2 weeks majority of the time) 

New update on the BH&J Rent vs Buy Index. https://business.fau.edu/departments/finance/real-estate-initiative/bhj-buy-vs-rent-index/bhj-summary/Interesting to note that most major markets have officially crossed over, where renting your residence and reinvesting what you would've spent on a home makes more financial sense than buying.

@Danielle Zito We did this (reappraised a three-decker in Boston to apply for a HELOC to fund investment down payment on another, also Boston) and though rates are variable on the product we have, they're fixed for a period of time first - so paying it back is a priority.In terms of timing, it does take some time to get through the HELOC process, so you probably want to start sooner rather than later, but I would discuss with your mortgage lender as well.

One thing I’d add to the list is that utilities typically aren’t on which is risky + a major pain when you transfer title.  

I've also thought about reaching out to one of these major portfolio lenders and putting everything on more fixed long-term debt to increase my cash flow, but I like the idea of paying everything off in 15 years. 

Also, next economic downturn and you can expect some very serious, very major changes in the TX higher education landscape.
