So tell your agent the deal is dead, they did all this work and won't get paid, unless they get a signed agreement from a tenant agreeing to vacate by 7/31/18 and your bank needs it by Wednesday

Wanted to move some dead equity in the form of HELOCs.

Keep in mind that dead equity is the most expensive route to purchasing artificial cash flow.

With mortgage rates are at or near 5% every dollar of dead equity will cost you 5% in lost income.

Bandit signs are illegal in my city and paying $1000 for them is extremely dead.
