Would like to refinance this rental property with 100k in equity
Lived in this current rental for 2.5 years and recently rented it out. Tenant paid entire year upfront (his employer paid for it as a relo for him and wife) and we gave a $2000 annual savings (150/month) We plan on taking the $25,800 and investing it on next property which will be a duplex, triplex, or quad. Currently looking. Our current interest rate is 5.25% on the property and we have about $100,000 in equity presently in that home. Should we refi and do a cash out for the next few properties we plan on buying. We are currently paying $1442 on the mortgage including property taxes. We both work full-time still at our professions and can afford to continue paying for that mortgage. Given that the interest rates are in the 3% range presently, is it worth it to get lower interest rate and cash out? First timers here. Thanks for your advice.
