Times 2 years, and you'll be $3k short of your projected expenses.Now add into the mix the increase in costs from what you are using now to estimate your future CAPEX off of, and you won't have enough money...even if all goes well.Saving for CAPEX through your cash flow is a losing option.Let's just see what happens if you do have added costs, and vacancies per year:assume 1 month vacant and one month worth of added costs per year, and you would end up saving only around $4500 per year.That would put you $6k short of your 2 year estimate, and (assuming you will only have the 3 years after that) $1500 short at the 5 year mark.The HELOC is there waiting for you when you need it.
