I prefer not to include escrow, because that gives me more month-to-month flexibility with cash, just a few bigger bills over the course of the year. 

If any of you flippers are looking for a strong, motivated, flexible, and hard-working individual to do the dirty job of rehabbing a house, that is taking out cabinets, tearing down walls, landscape work, painting, anything pretty much, then I'm your guy.

I'm looking for a firm that I can do both Commercial and Residential, and be somewhat flexible with my schedule.

I am only looking to do part-time but do have a bit of flexibility with my current schedule.

Tell them you are looking to find an apartment (similar to yours) and that your flexible on move in date.

I can also be very flexible, so you can choose your closing date and your move-out date, and I never ask you to do any repairs.In fact, it's a good idea when you are talking to sellers to give them the other options first.Why not list it with a realtor?

I tell you this, because I want you to be flexible.

I studied engineering, ways this has helped me in REI is by providing good connections that I got through school, solid stable income and flexible enough schedule I can do both.

I'm a bit nervous about doing that but it has to be done as I want to have the flexibility to be able to be there for my kids when they need me.  

But even if the HELOC rate goes up significantly, you have flexibility to draw and pay off as you choose.
