And you can go an entire successful 30 year career without ever learning it.The only "workaround," assuming the tax code is being followed and everything is accurate there, is finding a new lender, one you have some reason to believe is more competent in this very specific niche.... you don't go to a general ear/nose/throat doctor if you need brain surgery.

When I decided at a much earlier age to learn plumbing and make a career out of it, I also learned my requirements to become licensed.

I own a home with some decent equity and am eager to utilize a Heloc  to begin my investment career.

Howdy all, I am looking to get this RE investing career going. 

Every single time someone gives me "advice" on investing or a career path i spend a few minutes contemplating whether or not they take their own advice.

I do not have an established team yet so I think this may be a little out of my risk tolerance at this point of my investing career.  

We got caught up in our crazy busy “careers” that both of us hate!

Okay so I have started recently becoming more financially literate and career driven and I am looking for some advice.

I'm coming this career with no experience and no money.

He knows everything that I stated above, so he is aware that I want to pick his brain about stuff other then what his particular main career path entails.Thank you in advance!
