Refinance vs cash flow
Hello,
my question: should I refinance?
trying to wrap my head around a choice I have with a rental property
I recently finish turning a house into legal duplex.
new value is $430,000-450,000
remaining mortgage is $173,000
my mortgage is up for renewal On July
bank is offering me 2.24 rate two year fix.
cash flow with this new rate will give me about $1000 per month give/take
However, I am considering using the equity to invest in a new property.
I can refinance with B lender at 4 % rate with $1000 lender fee and get $150,000 (cant refinance with bank)
would likely allow me purchasing another property, turn it to legal duplex and get around 500$ cash flow per month.
what is the best way to analyze the numbers and compare those two options?
