I have lenders that I can point you to that would likely be able to give you a better product that will pay off that primary residence loan, or restructure it into one that doesn't take so much long term value out of your equity.

Account Closed that's not the case as long as you live in it as your primary residence for 12 months.

Curious if anyone has done that since land loans aren't great terms.

The right market for you depends on whether you prioritize cash flow (Augusta, Columbia) or long-term appreciation (Greenville, Huntsville).

Some focus purely on numbers, while others look at long-term value, location trends, or creative financing strategies.For those of you investing in Chicago (or similar markets), whats your mindset when evaluating off-market opportunities?

Like to learn about long term rental

Own and just keep it as a rental longterm/short term rental?

I've read numerous guides and watched many YouTube videos, so I have a good theoretical understanding, but I'm still unsure about the best way to start investing in U.S. real estate.My plan is to begin with long-term rental properties and then eventually move into flipping and the BRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) strategy.

You need to keep in mind that this should be a long term hold at least to a point when you wanna convert back to CAD that you are not losing on conversionWhen i started in 2012 it was like 1.05-1.07 

I am a long-term investor, but I also provide services to long-term investors, so my advice is biased toward that option.
