Introduction - Contractor getting back into REI

[Janice S.]

Hi everyone! It's been awhile (8 years) since my last REI transaction. My husband and I are ready to get back into the game. In our day-to-day we run a local construction company (roofing and exteriors), so it's very rare that we come across a property that will scare us off from a rehab standpoint. We currently have 5 units (a mix of SF and duplexes) and most recently purchased the office we run our business from. We are looking to get into multi-units. We're hoping we can tap into the equity of our current portfolio, possibly cash out refi? (Any pointers here to consider whether to cash out refi or sell?) Would like to learn more how others are using creative financing and partnerships.
