Best recommendation right now is a HELOC instead of cash out refi. It's variable rate, but only pay when you use it. Certainly the best option with high rates. Otherwise you could sell and 1031 as well.

Make sure to use financing options prior to potentially not returning to the W2.  Just a thought.

We will be doing a lot of filming at our booth!  Stop by!

@Chris Clothier Thanks so much for the input.  It would be good to note that Rent To Retirement certainly does have our own development and rehab division as we do many of our own projects in house, especially in the build to rent space as well as sourcing and vetting the top other builders and rehabbers across the country.

Keep up the great work sir!

@John Pocher, yes there are a ton of threads on BP and online in general on sites like BBB where investors share their honest feedback.  Just like with any business or industry, there are good team and not so good team.  Look at reviews, talk with investors and speak with the team you are looking to work with to determine who is the right fit and has a positive reputation.  To assist with your search, here are many forums talking about TK, RTR and investing in general.  Hope this helps.  Reach out at any point in time with any questions.

@Alex Gerondale I'm happy to connect.  Feel free to reach out whenever you are ready.  We all have to start somewhere.  I think the OH market would be a great starting point, and you likely have enough capital to purchase a property now based on the lower price points.  You could also use the same portfolio lender to put 5% down on an OH property (or whatever amount down you would like to).  So there are many options for you to take action now.  Just depends on what your goals are, and what is going to get you closer to them!
