Your cash flow is positive on paper, but how will that look in reality?

:)  Is it still cash flowing after the refinance?  

Any MF of the quality and size (50 up) I would have been interested in would have been cash flow negative for the next 5 years or so, even with 30% down.

In 90 days, the Board of Directors will reevaluate our cash position and decide if we will continue to recommence or continue to pause distributions.

Can provide all the benefits from a cash flow and tax perspective.

Just wanted to mention that the cash out refinance funds are not tax free forever.

Gifting equity in a house may be more trouble than it is worth if you are not near the life-time exclusion1) Potentially having to get the property appraised everytime an equity is gifted2) Having a title company update the title every time3) Exemption of the gift tax return is normally for cash gifts below the annual gift tax exclusion, you may still need to file if you gift non-cash4) If there is partial ownership over several years, having to properly pro-rate certain items such as real estate taxes, mortgage interest and rental income if the property is a rentalBest of luck 

The cash flow either way.

You can do this as a rate and term refinance with no cash out, or a cash out refinance. 

We are thinking about furnishing one of the Racine duplexes and listing it as a MTR to maximize our investment and get a higher cash flow.
