Refinance Scenario Basics
Just running through scenarios in my head to make sure I'm getting the basics hammered into my head. I'm looking for what I'm missing beyond the cookie cutter scenario I put below.
Scenario: Say I find a house listed at $200,000. I have a partner who will be handling the down payment up to $10,000 which in this case is 5%. The mortgage that will be pulled will be an Owner Occupied FHA because my idea will be to house hack this beautiful 4 bedroom with 3 other roommates. After six months of "seasoning" and minor cosmetics, the house is now magically appraised at $220,000 (because we got the house on minor discount and made money on the original purchase). Now I'm looking to refinance the loan at let's say $211,000 because my partner would like a 10% ROI which would equate to $11,000 in order to payoff my partner's investment. After paying off my partner, I now have an outstanding mortgage of $211,000 (This doesn't include the monthly payments made during the six months for simplicity sake), along with $9,000 in equity.
I appreciate all feedback and critiquing any outliers.
