How many properties? I live in Dallas and I self manage my STR in Arkansas. I could help you out!

@Lucia Rushton thanks so much! I definitely will. I hope you are doing well!

@Michael Volek thanks! I will give them a call!

Hey BPers!

Looking for a little direction! My family has decided to completely renovate my grandmother's house and use it as a vacation rental. We are in Dallas and her home (that's paid off) is worth about 500k as is and hopefully about 800k or more once renovated. We were going to get a HELOC to tap into the equity of her home in order to do the renovations. The problem is- we can't find anyone that is still doing any HELOCs. Has anyone opened a HELOC recently and can give me some direction on who to contact? Also, anyone know of an awesome luxury contractor? Thanks!

Have you tried using AirDNA or Rabbu? They can be hit or miss depending on the market but it gives you a starting point. 

@Cody Z. I wouldn't call myself a rock star since I only have one STR at the moment, but my "why" is for my kids and travel. But not separately... put them together. Lol I want my kids tg travel the world because I never got to growing up. I want them to see the world so they will grow up with a global, and hopefully well-rounded and tolerant, perspective.

Thanks everyone! I look forward to getting back in the groove of things!

@Anthoney Hanks Awesome! My in-laws live in Forney and I grew up in Mesquite! 

Hi everyone! Just wanted to pop in and say hi! I am "sort of" new to BP. I actually had an account but had to delete all my social media because one of my old students got a little stalkerish. Lol! But I'm BACK!! I would love to connect with others in Texas! Since the last time I was active, I have acquired my first deal- an STR in Arkansas, and became an agent! Now I'm looking for my next STR! I'd love to connect!
