I'd do whatever it took to get my credit rating up. 

You convert your hard money loan and refinance into a conventional loan and get the uptick of your renovation on the home value.

There are many who are just getting started that think, "well this is easy" and homes always appreciate 10% per year etc. and I will be a millionaire in five years. 

Getting a good handle on those are hard if you have no experience.Think of it like any other rental but calculate out what your food, linen, housekeeping, front desk, upkeep costs are just like any other expense. 

When you buy subject to, do you close through a title company and get title insurance?

@David Garcia I would also get a quote from a broker.

Hi all, For a rental home, tenant says bathroom floor keep getting wet, even though it is small amount. at first, they thought they dropped some water. after wiping water, however, it keep coming back and now they think there is some water leak. my plumber went to check and found no issue with bath sink. he thinks it must be shower leak. the shower was redone last year by a contractor, who i ended up firing since he did not show up to work later. anyway, i hired water damage restoration (Servpro) company to check how much damage there is now. unfortunately, based on my research, it is very hard to find source of shower leak. i am thinking of rebuilding shower. i hired a kitchen remodel contractor and he gave me two options; either fix shower pan only, or (optionally) rebuild shower as well. 

Get A.

If I am buying a property within three months of getting the home equity line of credit, will my lender consider the money seasoned enough that I could invest it?

But if you want the online version, buy the PLUS subscription (most expensive) in order to use class tracking and to get advanced reports.
