@Kevin Romines not a HELOC, I know those are popular.

How does it work to be investing in a very popular tourist area?

BTW - Despite popular belief, these actually cause very few problems, from a maintenance standpoint, in my experience. 

It's become a popular trend across places that have seen limited vacancies and high rents. 

They come in lots of colors so think about doing matte black or even brushed gold, which are both really popular right now.(3) install some shiplap as a backsplash.

@Yeshudas Nair, the most popular cities in Texas are Austin, Houston, Dallas, or San Antonio.Houston, TX has been very popular with foreign investors from China.  

. , SF, LA.. etc etc. and half paid CASH... so very nice deal.People come there for the out doors  its the wind surfing capital of the west and popular world wide.. along with skiing on Hood.. bikes Fishing boating etc.. pretty neat little area..

In Theory it free's up your "loan limit," however if you're personally obligated (you signed the mortgage note personally yourself as an individual) then it still counts as a financed property no matter if it was a commercial note, a private note, a DSCR or non QM note/loan, or a conventional note.So contrary to popular belief an underwriter will still count it with respect to fannie/freddie underwriting guidelines. 

It's located in a less desirable area but close to a popular up and coming part of town.

Things like professional photos, marketing on the company site and other popular platforms, having both agent and self-showings of the property, and a stringent tenant screening process.Wishing you the best of luck on your search for a tenant!
