This is my first time working for the industry.He refinanced two properties, in one he received cash back in the other one he had to put money in.A normal buying GL entry will be: Debit Credit increase Fixed Asset Land GL NENE unit 110 14,000.00 increase Fixed Asset Buildings GL NENE unit 110 139,378.30 increase Long Term Liability Mortgage/ Loan payable GL NENE unit 110 100,000.00 increase Operating Expenses Association Fees GL HOA fees/assessments (NENE unit 110 49,900.00 decrease Current Asset Bank account GL Bank account (cash to close) (NENE unit 110) 3,478.30 153,378.30 153,378.30 But I do not have any idea what GL to use when a property is refinanced.I have to add that for these two properties there are several invoices open in our system for the monthly loan payments missed before the refinancing of each property...what I do with those?

The seller said his HoA is careful about who they sell too so I will likely be screened or something of that nature.

Unless you have a signed contract with a scope of work, and even then, the estimate may be coming in low, a common strategy to get a client, underestimating the rehab (oh its labor only, doesn’t include this or that, demo and hauling not included, and or he’s not licensed which can be a problem on a quick flip.)I suggest really thinking through for the worst case scenario, that the condo doesn’t appraise for what you expect, the rehab is higher than you budgeted, you may struggle to find a tenant (days on market for condo rentals is high right now, lots of price drops).As a buy and hold, you really need to look at the HOA and how that affects your cash flow and return on investment.
