So, what was your determining factor in taking only the $38k out as cash for your re-fi?

So is there a way that you screen existing/inherited tenants that differs from the way you screen new potential tenants or do you ever give priority in taking care of inherited tenants, not from an emotional or friendly standpoint of being fair, but from the business perspective of providing good customer service will ultimately result in more responsible tenants or that are more long term?    

So far, I have the plans and permits ready to get started, however, whenever I introduce my intentions, they are not so keen in taking the job since it's an investment property.

Hello,I am interested in taking equity out on a paid off investment property in Philadelphia, PA.

As new investors we think it would be best to see if a more seasoned investor may be interested in taking it on or willing to assist.There is a woman in Oklahoma City who owns a home in Monroe County, Pennsylvania.

I understand that there may not be a cashout in taking this route if this is even possible.Is there another avenue that could get us to our goal, or closer to our goal?

The seller might agree to this if they have no interest in taking the property back.

However getting referral fees alone should bring the value in taking the little time it takes to get it.

Anyone who has been there 30 years is not interested in taking the home back.

One of my steps in taking action was to network with local investors in the Portland/Salem, OR area but I've been a little disappointed..
