If so, will there be a recapture higher rate on profit made above that amount? 

A lender would require you to have this done, but if you are paying cash, nobody will force you to protect yourself.Third Party Reports: $17KSurvey $2KTitle Recording and Search $5KAttorney Fees ? 

@Aaron Rushtoni know your questions are very focused on the HELOC but... there are lots of aspects to a BRRRR, and financing is only one of them.and if you use borrowed funds for 100% of everything then yes, that's potentially less cash out of pocket, but it also increases the overall cost of your project, putting more pressure on the appraisal and refinance. 

We are looking to rehab a place and then do a cash out refinance.Thank you.

Car washes require regular maintenance, collecting cash, etc.

Buyer gives 330,000 cash, and takes a 330,000 lein on the property. 

I don't think we are going to see a ton of appreciation on the properties we buy there, but for us, the cash flow makes up for it.

Purchase price: $232,000 Cash invested: $65,000 Sale price: $495,000 This was a house that I bought during covid for a project, and I completed all the work on this project myself.

The 4-quads are about 2x in price and cash flow about the same and maybe slightly lowerI see the advantage of 16-unit as rent upside w value add and reno, same PM team (same for both cases though)For the 4-quad: financing is easier and can sell individually.

Out of State Reno, NV has good opportunities for appreciation and cash flow potential.
