The tenant is obligated to all lease terms until a new lease starts.

The HELOC was the original plan, but it was going to take too long to close so we did this instead.My 403b has a value of roughly 85k and has a remaining loan balance of about 22k… about $700 per monthMy husband’s 457 has a value of roughly 180k and has a remaining loan balance of about 30k… about $850 per monthSince the HELOC is a variable rate, I’m hesitant to use a large amount from that.

The way we look at it however is this sort of situation would be OK - but its a one time referral fee - any sort of arrangement with a long-term referral fee / borrower protection is reserved for true professional mortgage brokers - who like @Chris Seveney mentioned, would be doing more legwork on the deal vs. a simple and clean referral handoffvia CFPB on referral fees for business-purpose hard money loans:§ 1024.5 Coverage of RESPA.THIS VERSION IS THE CURRENT REGULATIONView all versions of this regulationSearch this regulationRegulation X(a) Applicability.

The Seller is interested in leaving up to $0.5m as a preferred equity/debt as long as she doesn't have to pay tax immediately on the $0.5m that she doesn't receive on closing. 

What we are seeing is a massive increase in the number of properties for sale which has resulted in more competition between sellers and more of a balanced market than we've seen in a long time.If we continue to have a high number of properties for sale and a shortage of active and able buyer's then we should have some really solid buying opportunities even if the overall market doesn't drop. 

Either offering a unit or two as short-term rentals available with a space of horses to stay as well; a horse motel is the idea. 

Hi, I have started flipping houses not long ago but I think the hardest part for me is finding buyers. 

Assuming it's worth 1.75 million, it might take you a very long time to sell at that price (possibly years).
