I am considering getting a HELOC for SBA approval to purchase a service business.  Anything to watch out for or pitfalls I should be aware of before I go that route?

#LisaForrest 100% correct (as usual). Lender should not require funds from this source to be seasoned.

It may depend on the bank. I hear some will allow funds from a HELOC and others say the money must "season" for 60 days before it can be used.
