I have about $200k in equity in my primary residence and am wanting to do something with it if possible.

Over a 16 year timeline, the property will have generated ~40k cash flow, ~49k in principal payment, and ~29k in equity appreciation (assuming 1% appreciation) which makes a total net worth increase of ~118k. 

6 years ago my wife and I used the VA loan to purchase my grandfathers home in Euless, TX. It’s a 2355 SqFt 4/2 ranch that we tore down to the studs, opened up and rebuilt. With homes now listing in the area for >=...

I have enough money to buy a property in cash ($140,000), but the problem I foresee is that my capital will all be tied up in equity.

If guy with million dollar house only gains $5000 in equity in first year but house value goes up $30k, that can help even the field with a smaller house that is being paid down faster, right?

I have approx 240-250K in equity in my home.  

After a year of turns and renovations, we were able to more than double rents and still keep them 20% below market.We took it to our long term lender and ordered appraisals which came in at just over $1.2M which meant I created $700k in equity (current value - current debt).The cash out refinance was $930,000 at 3.75% interest, fixed for 30 years.

It’s now rented and I have about 200k+ in equity in it currently based on appraisal. 

I have roughly $161k in equity and more in liquid assets.

The BRRRR method is designed to purchase and rehab so you are building in equity into the home.
