Sure the Realtor may be a liaison between the two parties and they may interact but in no way shape or form do the two work for one another....Appraisers in this environment seem to error on the side of caution based on what happened in the past it seems...As a result unique properties end up suffering because the value isn't in black and white and the appraisers aren't as creative/adventurous as they once were in a different era..Good luck but I agree with the majority, if you still have a healthy profit go for it as if you roll the dice the appraisal may even come in lower next time..best,Chris

I've officially gone red to black in terms of start up costs. 

Ahsley, the single families are cashflowing a couple hundred in the black each month and it's been a while since I'd refinanced so I agree that a HELOC or refi/cash out would be the way to go.

Thanks for the advice Eric Black and Barbara Goodman.

I have friends in Vancouver and a couple of them live in White Rock (or Black Rock...I mix them up) so Bellingham was just as close.Power to quitting day jobs!

Best local meeting to check out is the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham (2nd meeting in Worcester), you will learn a lot and meet lots of great people.  

You would have better odd's going to a casino and putting everything you have on black at the roulette table than you do of having a good outcome of a rental property bought via HML. 

(Note) I would like to purchase within the next 15 days.Regards,name(PH) xxx.xxx.xxxx---------------------------------------------This is for out of state owners and would be placed in black and white on a card with no graphics.
