Rinse recycle repeat.

But it's always nice to get all (or more but that's typically hard in today's market) of your "cash" money back so that you can recycle that pot of money over and over again.

Use the "BRRRR strategy", which allows you to recycle your same $25k, every 6 months!

Maybe a tire recycling center moves in .

Yes I do believe CF is king but being able to BRRRR the majority of my funds out of each deal after the rehab/refi is what allows me to continually recycle my initial investment and expand without running out of capital.

Your cash flow does go down when you refinance, but you have better tenants paying down your mortgages, less maintenance due to the rehabs, more assets to depreciate due to recycling your money, more assets to combine and take commercial loans out, and if you hold long enough a ton of assets for 1031 exchanges or if you pay off to perform seller finance when you retire. 

Create a false panel to hide the recycling bins- you can buy ready made ones or make your own. http://diy-alternative-energy.com/15-best-looking-ways-hide-trash-cans-frugal-fabulous/ Change out the light fixture for something more decorative.

I think it is a move worth considering at this phase of the RE cycle and with a cautious partner and current financial situation.
