Check in with @Joseph Chiofalo when you’re ready to leverage the equity or expand the portfolio there are some very workable investment property refinances of up to 80-90% of value and investment property financing available often with as little as 15% down on 1-4 units.

- Buy something that you can add value to, refinance in a year or two (or when it makes sense), take the cash out and buy an investment property- Buy new construction, let the builders build the equity for you while you live there, sell in two years (or LTR - MTR typically isn't allowed in new construction neighborhoods)If you are thinking of self-managing, what about Winston Salem/Greensboro area?

You could find an investment property HELOC for your current investments and use them to essentially by a property all cash to BRRRR and pay off the HELOC when you refinance.

You could consider doing a cash out refinance of your current primary as an investment property with a dscr loan.From there get a low cost or zero down loan for your Primary.Use the proceeds left from the refinance to get your next property.There are so many different strategies.

Instead of selling - have you thought about doing a cash out refinance?

When we get financing for the buildings, we were planning to refinance the note on the property and roll into the loan with the buildings.

Quote from @Steven Gesis:   Brian, I read an article in Bloomberg the whole premise of the business plan for a particular operator was a "double pop" and a short-term fix and flip strategy all focused on high velocity  multiple refinance events, floating adjsutable rate and the hope and faith of continued rent growth coupled with low interest rates in multifamily -   I wonder how this is working out for them now.

Then I will refinance the mortgage that LLC 2 has andpay LLC1I hope this provides a better option as I have beencalling around and the banks are telling me that if I use my own money I willhave a 6month to one-year seasoning period.

Once the property is rehabbed, you can refinance into a DSCR loan with no seasoning requirements.I'll let some of the traditional mortgage brokers chime in, but traditional financing might require a 12-month waiting period to pull your cash back out.

Given your expertise as a contractor, you might find an investor willing to fund the rehab in exchange for a profit share or interest on the loan.Cash-Out Refinance:If you own other investment properties, consider a cash-out refinance to pull equity from those properties to fund the rehab.I work for Aslan Home Lending and we have a HUGE variety of loan products, including the ones mentioned above.
