Lawrence Adair Owner finance question for a first time investor.
17 November 2024 | 7 replies
Second issue is that it would be really difficult to cash flow, while paying both notes, especially with one lender in second position (which would most likely have a higher rate, plus points to offset their risk.)Now if you got the property under contract for 75% of the market value, which means you would have built in equity, and willing to personally guarantee (full recourse) then yea it may work out.If it's a good enough deal then you could even bring in an equity partner. 50 percent of a great deal is better than 100% of no deal.Cheers!

Jesse Jones-Smith Advice on keeping expensive house as rental and downsizing

So being conservative we would say you gain $46k in equity ($1.15m times 4%) plus cash flow (which I would argue is basically nothing after vacancy, repairs, capex) plus principle portion of debt pay down (you’ll have to look at your statements and figure this out).
Bryce Cover Analyzing the Impact of Selling vs. Renting My Property
15 November 2024 | 2 replies
Maintenance and potential repairs will also require a long-term financial plan and setting aside a contingency fund for such expenses.The steady cash flow, appreciation over time, and tax benefits can make a meaningful difference to your wealth in the long term, especially with the principal paydown on the mortgage.However, if managing the property from a distance feels too burdensome, or if you’d prefer the certainty and flexibility that comes with having less debt (especially given the high mortgage rates), selling and using the $100,000 in equity to reduce your loan for your next home may be the smarter move.
