Once you've confirmed that the amount you received is correct, then send all of the original documents via certified mail to escrow.

If you are using your HELOC for a downpayment, your rent needs to cover the cost of your new mortgage, HELOC and expenses.I'm analizing a lot of deals now; must have looked at close to 100 over the course of the last week and this method makes it tough to find a property that makes sense numbers wise, however there have been quite a few that have been break-even given this scenario so i know there will eventually be one that provides some cash flow, even when using a HELOC, i just have to find them.Good luck!

I wholesale....but I also know how to analyze properties for rehab, have a realtor run tight comps and know the correct contract verbiage that goes into wholesaling.

Hello Matt,In the institutional investor world the method used to manage turn cost was $ per sqft. 

When I bought this house I was cash poor so I rolled it into my mortgage (about $3,500 if I remember correctly).

I know that doesn't take into account the finish/quality of the homes, but is that method generally accurate? 

I used that method and have explained it in more detail in other threads or in a book.Moment number two – as a broker, I began doing real estate syndications and raising money.

correct, for a conventional mortgage if you live there or not.
