If so, what have been the benefits to having this type of business model as an investor?

However, if you read them and if it covers your main concerns, it should be fine.

One of the main requirements of a HELOC is you need to own the house. 

If you happen to invest in an opportunity zone, by all means take advantage of the tax benefits of doing so.

But, there's nothing more important than accurate numbers so be sure the person you use knows real estate and all our laws about tax and entity structure so you're able take advantage of all the tax benefits available to you.Good luck!

I guess my main question is: How can I offer value so that the HR department would like to work with me now and in the future?

I do not like using the checking account to pay for contractors, repairs, materials etc because we don't get any benefits, miles, cash back. 

How would we handle rent income, taxes, tax benefits?

I am interested in investing in TX/NYC/NJ and leverage the Veteran benefits (like VA home loan) and my disability benefits (full property tax exemption in some states like TX or NJ)I have about 75-100K to invest, VA Home loan, TX VLB Loan, NY home for veteran loans and other states have similar loan programs for veterans.my biggest debate is whether to buy my first property in Hudson County NJ (jersey city, Hoboken) or DFW TX.another thing, anyone has experience doing business with Federal or state government?

I’ve heard of it being used on main sewer lines.
