Why do you put a window that low in the bathroom? 

@Armani Pimentel Yes, I believe that wholesaling is generally not the way to go, because it is getting banned, there are people who try to take advantage of aspiring entrepreneurs like you, and it is extremely low probability. 

If you can’t do a 1031 to a non-income tax state, figure out a year when you will have lower income and tax rates ar as low as possible.

Interest rates will plummet and you can refinance that property, lock in 30 years of low interest rates, pull out equity, and buy another!

However, at $105 per SF seems very low.

Quote from @Fernando Martin-Gullans: Hey y’all, I’m a retail investor with 2 SFH rentals worth a combined ~$650k looking to utilize some of my stored equity to buy more out-of-state properties, but I’m not quite sure how best to proceed given that my interest rates are incredibly low (leaning me away from refinancing) and neither property is owner-occupied (which I believe prevents me from using a HELOC).

Most people I know start with low money down programs so they can get away with a initial capital investment of around $25k but you also need reserves.  

Buy low sell high..

Looking for a house we could house hack, had an incredibly low interest rate on mortgage and house has increased in value about 42%, an estimated 180k in equity.

So the choice of tenant would be key.On the flip side, reasons to hold: a very low mortgage rate; probably not the case.
