Many states have non-judicial options where if the contract allows for it(most contracts do) then no court involvement is required to foreclose the property.

Quote from @Shane Haas: Quote from @Patrick Roberts: From a lender's perspective:If the purchase is made via cash and without any liens on the property or funds borrowed against the property, your cashout options are:A) Delayed financing within six months of purchase, which is treated like purchase money financing.

Condos will be your best option when compared to co-ops because only about 15% of co-ops allow subletting.

Closing Costs – Remember to factor in refi fees and how long you plan to hold the property to determine if refinancing will save you money overall.Since you mentioned owning the property for only a year, your equity might still be limited, impacting your options or leading to higher costs.

Explore strategies like house hacking or creative financing options, such as DSCR loans, to make the most of your leverage.

Absolutely sounds like a good option!
