I personally have used a heloc to purchase and renovate an investment property, like you mentioned I cashed out at the end and paid back the heloc. 

Many homeowners locked in mortgage rates at historically low levels, between 2.5% and 3%, providing a golden opportunity for those refinancing or purchasing homes at that time.

Hi everyone, I inherited a tenant when I purchased a property 6 years ago and this tenant moved out.

Income is $600,000 per year and husband and wife both work full-time non real estate jobs.Is it true that the tax benefits are greater, or realized more quickly, on purchases like furniture or televisions to itemize a rental property, when they are made AFTER the date the property is put in service?

I have purchased a property using credit cards before and looking at doing it again.

My tenant lives in the unit above me and has been there since before I purchased the property (She is also a section 8 recipient).

If you have recently rented it out you may be able to use departing residence rental income to help you qualify for the new purchase. lenders will use 75% of the expected rents. 

I finally start my full time job, report 60k a year, which is not very high considering where I live and my home purchasing power.

I am looking to purchase land and potentially rental property using a self directed IRA.

Purchase price: $390,000 Cash invested: $40,000 A rare off market twin in Bala Cynwyd!
