Instead of stressing over timing it perfectly, focus on making sure the deal still works even if rates shift.Since you’re buying in Norfolk, check if lenders there offer any investor-friendly incentives.

Pulling equity out of a property is another form of loan.

I’m here to guide you through the process and help with whatever you need.

And indeed they do this all the time.I would get your own accountant's temperature on this first.   

Since then my wife and I have been getting calls from people about wanting to buy this house.

I'm hesitant to give up my conventional loans on the next cash out refinance for DSCR loans.

They just came out with a BabyBox, even smaller one that circumvents state housing lows and falls in as an RV.

@Scott Trench accountability check in?

With a bit of planning and good operations, one can easily manage 20 to 30 properties without an assistant, with less than a day or two a month.There's lots of automated ways to check on rent, make deposits (my tenants deposit directly into a bank account), receive maintenance requests, have maintenance done, etc., etc.One thing I could argue is to have your tenants ONLY email you, especially for maintenance requests, and that email goes directly to the vendor that you have set up to handle it.

I don't believe "waiting it out" is an effective strategy.
