As already mentioned, you could sell via seller financing to lower AGI, as all you would have to claim is the payment income - until balloon payment received.Did know an investor that had 14 properties paid off and he moved into one every two years to then sell with the $250k single exemption.

You came along last year and bought the property for $300,000 as an investment property.So in year one, your taxes were based off the previous owner's purchase price of the $100,000 plus any annual tax increases since they owned it.  

One thing that DSCR is not really set up for is if the property is "Subject to" meaning not move in ready/live able.

You will lose one of the best benefits of the real estate industry, appreciation.

I didn't see a need for a holding company but if someone wants one, you can just use another LLC as the holding company.

Take it one step at a time, and you’ll get there.

When that happens you will only lose part of your cash flow rather than all of it if you have multiple DSTS vs one larger one.

Quote from @Mary Jay: Quote from @Jay Hurst: Quote from @Mary Jay: hi guys,so I have a lot of equity in one of my rentals but the interest rates are super low on it. so I dont want to do a cash out refinance on it because I dont want to lose the 3% interest rate on it.I want to get some cash out of it via Heloc or another vehicle,  so I could buy another rental, but its not my primary, so I cant get a HELOC on it from lots of banks....I think PenFed does helocs on rentals, but because I have more than 5 rentals, I dont qualify for their HELOC loan.IS there a bank that would give a HELOC/cash on a rental?

Real estate investing can be an effective way to build long-term wealth, and among the various strategies, one has gained significant popularity over the years: BRRRR.
