Hi, im looking to purchase another rental property and just wondering if a cashout refi is my best option.
I purchased my first property in January 2021, with the prices of homes going up, my equity has also gone up. If anyone with experience in cashout refi's can give me some advice or suggestions I would appreciate it.

I would say it all depends on what you want. If your focus is investing, will the numbers on the property still work after the refi? What is your intent with the money you pull out of the refinance? Would that money be better sitting in that property or is there a higher and better use for it elsewhere?

How much equity do you have in your rental? If you paid full price for your rental and did 80% LTV, even in this bizarre market, I highly doubt you'll walk with much 10 months later.
