If not I wouldn't bother selling as there is an incredible amount of money lost in buying and selling properties, so you have to make sure you have a plan to maximize the equity and actually have enough. 

Hey Cleveland, I’m looking to talk to some property managers we have experience in the area and see who might be a good fit.

Part of considering acquiring a property should include additional possibilities.

Property is occupied but lease renewal is this month.

I am very familiar with the strict zoning laws for Hawaii short term rentals but most Waikiki apartments are either too expensive or leasehold only properties. 

Look at quality properties (not something that is cheap and looks good on paper). 

I hear commercial 5+ is not good nowadays. 

Never force the numbers—if they don’t add up, the property isn’t a good fit.

I will start by fixing and flipping properties.

Yes, you can do a refinance to tap some more of the equity on the property.
