Unfortunately, it seems like the state of Texas forbids HELOC's on investment properties and I am reluctant to do a cash out refi (or sell the properties) as my current hard money rates on these properties are between 4.5%-6%.

Working to get the Quitclaim Deed under my LLC.

Others are in my name, managed by me.

My tenant found sublease for 500 less than he pays.

I hope to get into my first deal by year’s end. 

My biggest concern other than the closing costs was that if an FHA buyer tried to come buy it my understanding is they would need to wait 90 days from when I bought it and I think it would only take about a month to fix it up.

Most of my detectors, maybe all, do not have a visual indicator for the hearing impaired. 

My question is once I have a deal signed for an apartment with seller carrying back down payment I need a partner/guarantor which would help qualify for bank loan with their income and cover closing costs. 

My question: In the original lease it states to make payments via check or money order to the Property management office.

Its a difficult and costly process, but usually lead to high returns if done correctly.Im in Central FL, so this is from my experience.
