Got my first STR property, need guidance for next one
Hello BiggerPockets community,
I bought my first STR property in January, rehabbed it, and now it's already in the market and generating income. I'm ready for the next one but I lack knowledge for the whole BRRR strategy. I was hoping you all could give me some guidance to get some money out of this property to use for the next one. Here are the facts:
I have a DSCR Loan for that STR property
I currently have an 8.925 % rate
I owe about $172.5K and the property is probably worth now $380K
STR was purchased in January
Given these facts, and with interest rates being so high, where and how can I get some money to proceed with the BRRR?
Also my primary residence has about 400K of equity.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Let the first one season for 12 months to make sure you can actually make money.
I heard of a guy that bought 2 pretty quick and then sold 2 even quicker because he was losing money at todays inflated RE prices and higher mortgages.
Slow and steady wins the race.
