I just got my first rental property so I am very new to all of this. 

So I am not sure whether I really need sources of passive income right now considering that I have a lot of energy that I can spend on investment strategies that require more efforts and energy.

While this approach works in the early stages, there comes a time when consolidating all your properties' insurance into a single, scheduled program might be more beneficial.

Hello, I am new to this space but was looking for some advice on obtaining a HELOC on a home that I am currently renting out. 

Can someone advise how to deal with this situation?

@Max Bellino You seem eager to learn and I hope you accept this as constructive criticism.

Just buy a property in your personal name and learn the game first. 

I also dont have enough cash on hand to hire a lawyer to go after the contractor at this time (I doubt she has the assests anyway).

Then the land flipper will get to work marketing the property and selling it on to the next buyer at an inflated, more market-related, price.

I'll update it as I learn more.
