My advice is to get in, but keep some dry powder.

Right now I have been looking into starting a supplement company focusing on small batch high quality protein powders and pre work outs with a military theme but not really sure so I’m just seeing where 2020 takes me and I’ll figure it out as I go.

It's a good time to have a lot of dry powder.

As portfolios rise into the dozens+, most I know just have an amount of reserves like 30-50k not including dry powder. 

This gives you the dry powder you need if a good deal comes along or unexpected expenses and you keep the existing low mortgage rates and do not increase your payment until you use the HELOC.Consider how you could increase the cash flow on the existing properties and if you have the means to pay off one of the houses to increase the monthly cash flow that way.

You will exponentially increase your dry powder.

I previously lived in a very expensive area and kept my powder dry for 2 years until I had the opportunity to move.

I have some powdered water.

I've also been sitting on dry powder, or cash, since mid-2019 as you can read from the blog in the link above.I highly recommend these books to mold your thoughts/investment philosophy when it comes to stocks:How to Pick Stocks Like Warren BuffetThe Intelligent InvestorIt's fair to say that I've been waiting for this moment to invest for over 10 years and time will tell if my instincts were right (So far I’m up 30% and have bought in very close to the bottom.

Having some powder in your back pocket when the next crisis comes is not a bad idea.That does not mean to stop investing.
