Like my title says, I am a dentist in the Kansas City area and am looking at real estate to be my retirement plan.

Assuming your debt is SUPER cheap and only costs you 12% you’ll save $22,800 TAX FREE  So the combination is saving $60k at 12% (or more) is $7,200/yr and $130k in the bank at only 4.5% is another $5,850/yr  so you’re over $13k GUARANTEED instead of a chance to make $7,200 before taxes  

It also wouldn't make sense to refi into another Bridge unless he's at the end of his period on the loan!  

But, taking the lowest rate at any cost is not simply a no brainer do it every time. 

Surely there's at least one other applicant in your town who meets your criteria and doesn't have any evictions.

I'm looking at a multifamily investment in Hillsboro Texas.

syndication/private equity deals have a much better chance of penciling and providing decent CoC as there are more economies of scale and sophistication at the GP/operating group level in general.

At one condo development where I owned property, they did not exceed the rental limitation, but none the less were not certified for FHA financing. 

But it will be significant.To determine roughly how much tax exposure you're looking at you would need to know what your net gain will be.You will have to break down your Adjusted cost basis, and your net sale.

Conventional loan, 25% down at ~7% interest rate How did you add value to the deal?
