They Truly were Enlightening, I doubled back to read them after getting lost in the forums LOL thanks Again

BTW, thanks for the enlightenment. 

I'm located in Central Washington (Wenatchee Area) and I have a Cash Out Refinance scenario that I need a solution to and i'm hoping you all can enlighten me on some ideas or referrals.We have 2 properties (1 - Four-plex, & 1 - Duplex) with 2 loans that we would like to consolidate into 1 loan on the 4plex with the duplex then owned free and clear to make available to open a LOC for future investing opportunities as they arise.We owe 158 on the 4-plex and 91 on the duplex for a total of 249kthe initial appraisal came back at 300k for the 4-plex but it's very low for our local market.

I am curious if anyone here knows a good management company in this area, OR if can enlighten me on how to negotiate this figure with the management co. 

Any enlightenment is highly appreciated.

Thank you very, very much to anyone who can enlighten me!

I usually burn through them at 2x speed, but I'll back up and slow them down for something that sounds particularly enlightening.

I've actually been trying to enlighten all my soldiers on the simple house hack of buying a duplex with their VA loan and then have a property manager because lord knows they won't have the time to focus on the day to day. 

I have only been searching through the forums for a couple of days now and it has been extremely enlightening.  

To install solar panels and a geothermal heat pump in the Boston area might cost about $100K retail, which seems like a non-starter UNLESS incorporating these into a mortgage made financial sense for the buyer, and...appraisers factored this into the appraisal valueSo in other words, if the additional amount on a 30 year mortgage were offset by energy savings & programs, AND the buyer was able to live carbon-free, it seems that this might attract a savvy and enlightened buyer.
