Great questions - a lot of our borrowers will tap the equity using a refinance in order to purchase their next investment property.Feel free to give me a shout anytime, happy to help!

I look at all I do for clients for free.. 

-- We focus on verifying 2-year work history and verifying rent payments with last 2 landlords (unless in same property for 5+ years).3) MoveIn Specials: be careful with offering "free rent" as will just attract tenants with no cash.-- Try free TV or something else worth 25-50% of one month of rent.-- Or, what we do is offer the free rent AFTER & ONLY if they pay their first 3 months of rent on time to earn it.4) Lower the rent 5% every 2-4 weeks until activity picks up.5) Understand this is the worst time of year to find tenants.-- Starts picking back up end of February when this tenant pool starts getting their income tax refunds and aren't broke anymore.6) Section 8: where is the property being advertised?

I sent you a DM, feel free to reach out!

They will issue an IRS Form 1099 in January, reporting your total taxable income to you and the IRS.

I own the property free and clear and i use the equity as part of my business line of credit.

Everything you need to learn/know is available online for free.

They would get that $500K tax free and the rest of the tax would be deferred in the 1031.A very elegant solution that puts $500K tax free in their hands now. 

It is not free even when you are reading free articles on the internet.
