Turning a historic duplex into a high-performing asset while forcing $100k in appreciation is no small feat—seriously impressive. 

Hi Daniel,Refinancing out of a high-interest bridge loan can be challenging, but you have a few potential options based on your equity, tenant situation, and FICO score. 

When you say you want to prioritize cash flow over equity, you want to watch out for people honing in on that and selling you "good cash flow" deals which will be in D neighborhoods and will come with high capital expenditures and harder tenancies.

I focus heavily on the sell side and on the buy side only work with high net worth individuals so the newbie wanting a 400k multifamily with an FHA loan probably isn't for me. 

Every task must be completed diligently and on time.If you wing it, you're gonna miss something, you're gonna mess something up.So, be proactive, stay organized, and keep your power team aligned to ensure a successful closing.

Your income isn't high enough for it to make sense as a rental and the closer you get to your residence limit the greater pressure you will have to sell it before losing your exclusion in whole or part. 500k right now can make $15k per year income with zero maintenance or tenant risks. 

The "+/-" isn't based on the high or low end of the sq ft range, it's based on the differences in quality, or finishes, or the specific location within that micro-market. 

As a new investor, your story is a powerful reminder of how important it is for me to be meticulous in protecting my investments.

This doesn't come cheap--these folks were making high six to seven figures depending on volume.We focused on lending to professional real estate investors--so our customers were frequent repeat borrowers.
