@Tom HallAt 7% if you can I would pay it down as investing it net after tax gains may not get you the 7% you are paying - so it’s less riskDownside is you lose liquidity of that money as it’s tied in your propertyIf rates come down in future you can refinance and even take some of the cash out.Regarding your question are rates coming down, a lot of factors come into play but right now it does not appear there will be significant changes to rates over next 3-6 months.

The property cash flows and I could definitely see each investor making at least $1000/mo with the most hands-off approach of renting to an operator and much more if a person ran it as STR or LTR and it is a great diversification play for me as Costa Rica should see much better appreciation than the Midwest, but if I were to cash out I could see five times the cash flow because of the power of leverage.But I think you hit the nail on the head in saying that it is a lifestyle type of investment.  

There is some room for creativity here, but it takes careful planning and execution, and there is only so far you can push it before crossing the line from aggressive but legal to reckless and punishable.GROUP 2: Legitimate tax strategies, just not for the EOY to-do listForm an S-corporation.

I was skeptical but after seeing one go through the net I realize how powerful and legitimate all of this is.

They are great as appreciation plays but that's not what most investors are looking for.C/C+ is where you're going to cash flow...
