Why stop at a $10,000 HELOC. 

It needs to stop. 

Please stop telling new STR hosts to only list on one platform.  

Seller financing rarely has access to the credit system.

The property is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath (one of the rooms is the master with its bathroom and access to go outside), with a separate garage and an unfinished garage unit.

If I sell my stocks to access cash, there's capital gains tax.

I use all of them:-Brokers-Platforms like LoopNet, Crexi (my favorite), and BiggerPockets Deal Finder-additionally, brokers often have access to off-market opportunitiesWhen dealing with brokers, I've found that you have to build a relationship in order to get a good deal flow.

But your main killers; road access, water access, fire hydrants, flood plain, storm sewers, Storm ponds, road surface requirements, etc. 

Leverage technology early and put everything in the cloud, so you can access info wherever you are.Make sure to get properly licensed and obtain E&O Insurance.

When it stops doing that, I’ll drop a property or properties.
