Its a nice little cheat/loophole on the mortgage side that can help afford a larger home pice and increase your chances of getting a home or other loans.If you have any questions feel free to reach out I am always happy to help and go over the basics.

I know it’s not a super helpful comment for your end goal but my wife and I are looking for a second rental in Virginia Beach if you were interested in freeing up some funds for your Pittsburgh expansion.

For your second question-either refinance it (you say it is mortgage free, so get a mortgage and pull out that money) or try a home equity line of credit (may not work as it is a rental).The difference in insurance quote with 5% and no coverage is ~ $1200 for the year.

You should see more deals and price reductions as we roll over into 2025 as well.If you need any help or have specific questions feel free to reach out or send me an email.
