Updated about 6 years ago,
Got property and good amount of equity but dont know next step
First off, thank you to all the people that share the info you've learned!!
Ok so here is my story so far. I bought a house for 141K that needed tons of work but in great neighborhood. Worst house in best neighborhood kind of deal. Lived in it with my wife and 3 kids for 6 years now and fixed it up little by little. About a year and half ago we pulled 60K out with a cash out Refi. We bought a dated condo and spent 3K(from savings) updating it, its now worth around 80K and is cash flowing around $350 a month through vacation websites(its very close to the Kennedy Space Center). My primary house has appreciated and is now worth about 320K. Also, I've saved about 10K I would be willing to use for investing again.
I really want another property but don't really know where to go from here. Could definitely use the advice on what my options are. Should I use the main house again and buy something small so I only have that 1 loan, or pull 40K(ish) from the condo and use it as a down payment thus getting 3 loans in the process? I feel like I'm at a crucial step and would really like to make a good decision.
Any advice and or opinion would be greatly appreciated!! Oh and hope Im posting this in the correct section(still kind of new here)
Thanks,
Paul
