I’m currently reading the book on long distance real estate investing by David Greene so that’s helping some. 

But in turn you get a cheap product at the latter two… they work fine but they let a lot of light through.

I'm not sure I see the value from the landlord side unless it's a rent guarantee product. 

I have started that process they seem to lead me to finished product. they have brought a couple of properties that I like and thinking of brrrr them. does your property managing company vet renters & deal with evictions 

(And keep in mind, it's 6 months from close to close, and the refi is likely to take 45-60 days, so you can really start the application closer to 4 months out even if seasoning is required).A conventional cash out refi is one of the most common and popular loan products out there and you can't turn on the radio without hearing an advertisement for a refi.

Seems like these companies take the approach of wanting to get your sale once as opposed to having a product that lasts and having a customer for life. 

There is no reason not to take full advantage of such a fantastic loan product. 

I’ve been meaning to tell everyone about this fantastic HELOC product I got for months, but I’ve forgotten to do the post.

If you can find houses that are similar in square footage and finishes to the finished product you are shooting for, you should be good to go.Practically speaking, however, sometimes there just aren't enough sold properties in the neighborhood you're looking at.

Test your contractors / handy people out on small jobs first, and ask pointed questions before assigning tasks to determine not only if they are "comfortable" doing the work, but ask: "How many times have you done this specific type of job, and can you show me pics of the end product?"
