Hey Laura,So I can't help with the true GAP funding, but I might have some ideas on how I could help utilizing the seller financing and transitioning it to something long term. 

It is true what someone told me once: getting my license can get me into trouble more quickly than doing wholesaling deals properly (following state law).

Leaving the area for the sake of real estate investing isn't in the cards for us.

Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Chris Seveney:Yes if too good to be true it probably is.

One of the biggest challenges for everyone involved is being on the same page about the actual time required for maintenance.DIY landlords rarely properly track their time when it comes to property management in general - tracking their true time invested in maintenance is where they perform the worst.Investors that hire PMCs are rarely any better at understanding the true amount of time maintenance takes.

The question being, does this still hold true for Arizona?

A Heloc is an open end mortgage same as a credit card the only benefit is that you only pay on the amount you borrow.

If it’s too good to be true then it is.

Neither that course, nor City Park are really all that great, using that space for a true park is, in my view, a great move for the city. 

My 2 cents @Bobby Paquette - if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
