Using too much leverage is a dangerous though, so definitely a good idea to consider all options.

It is a good way to test the trainer to see if they seem to know what they are talking about.

About a year or two ago I pivoted and started flipping and finding alternative strategies, but I have realized those cannot replace this strategy, they can be in addition to it, but I need to continue buying, moving, and keeping as a rental every couple of years because this really is the best strategy for building long term wealth.Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I am hoping to roll these two into one loan and reduce my monthly payment/ interest rate on the HELOC as I will be having the debt long term.I also currently own a 11 spot RV Park which I own all 11 units and is currently generating $10,375/month in rent.

If you consistently analyze properties, recognizing a good deal will be much easier when it shows up.

The owner is a good friend of ours and agreed to do a deal with us if we helped him rehab the property.

Good idea, bad idea? 

Good to knowIn the grand scheme of things, its not a huge deal.

As a lender I help clients with unique financing all the time, and have a couple long term hold investment properties but I am wanting to start “dipping my toes” into the flip world.

(Example: investing for long-term capital growth for your kids education in 15 years, you have $200K to play with, you want to be an active investor in a market within 3 hours of you).
