Wait till rates are back in the 5s, refinancing/HELOCs are expensive today and you will need to refinance that debt in 1-2 years anyway once rates come down.

In the meantime, the funds have been reducing or suspending distributions to pay for value-add, cover increased costs, and to prepare for any required refinancing.So it will be a balancing act of dealing with the increased costs, managing refinancing, continuing to add value while waiting for valuations to rise significantly (partly from value-add, partly from lowered interest rates) before exiting.Disclaimer -- not advice, just some perspective on what's happening.  

Was the refinancing done and capital returned in year 3?

Have you refinanced this into a long-term mortgage?

For the refinancing part, we're wondering if someone has experience with loans for non-US citizens? 

What about rate and term refinancing?

This makes targeting distressed sellers, such as those in pre-foreclosure, or those with ballooning debt that was taken out in 2020-2021 when the interest rate was 7.37x lower (8/09/2020 the 10-year treasury was .56%, 1/15/2024 the 10-year treasury is 4.69%) making it very difficult for those that underwrote the property in 2020 to have predicted refinancing at these rates and likely a sale is their only option.

I do not see a path to refinancing and see the better option is to sell the property.

There is no point refinancing the almost paid off property to buy another-just get a mortgage on the new property.hard money lenders are going to charge you a higher interest rate.
