Oh ok @Robin Simon I'll just sell my $1m+ in properties and quit real estate investing because of your well thought out opinions. 

Quote from @Robin Simon: I'd love to connect as well, local Austin private lender (also CPA) Excellent!

Quote from @Robin Simon: Hard to tell without more information and what you qualify/are being quoted for for new financing, but considering you are already at a 6.125% rate, that means cash-our refi might make sense for you moreso than a lot of others out there who have locked in much lower ratesThanks for the response! 

Quote from @Robin Simon: It most likely depends primarily on the state of the property, typically if its a tax lien foreclosure there is typically some rehab/work to be done. 

Hi @Marek Simon, @Nathan G. nailed it- go ahead and get started, you can worry about these details later once your business has some more direction

@Simone SmithGive more info and detail on your positions and financial status. 

For example, I personally can log into my brokerage account and buy Simon Property Group (ticker SPG).
