Is a cash-out refinance a good strategy right now despite the risk of a negative cash flow?

This hands-on strategy allows you to add immediate value and build capital quickly to reinvest in larger deals.

Implementing a value add strategy, which will raise rents and force appreciation has been an unfair advantage in just about any market condition. 

Hi @V.G Jason and Lilia,I came across this thread while digging into discussions about real estate strategies, and I couldn’t agree more with the focus on long-term thinking.

You can start by researching the market, connecting with other investors, understanding your strategy, and practicing your calculations (you can use BP calculators to help with this).

@Khaled El Dorry This strategy is know as a consolidation exchange, and like what @Adam Bartomeo said a single buyer might be difficult to find.

Since your goal is lowering monthly payments for better cash flow, it might be worth focusing on reducing expenses elsewhere or exploring other investment strategies.

Curiosity got me.. does anyone else have a favorite strategy for keeping deposits crystal-clear?

However, I also think that a lot of people who set out to pursue this strategy miss the fact that it is literally a lifetime commitment to deferring taxes, which by definition means not realizing the gains.

We are currently preparing my real estate strategy, of course using the Bigger Pockets Strategy book, as a previous business owner in another industry, there’s a lot of good and refreshing information here in this Strategy book.
