I think you brought up a great point with the 10 yr cycle. 

Hello @Timothy Hilario,I think there are benefits to both strategies.If you move out of your apartment and rent it as a mid-term rental, you could see decent cashflow without pulling equity out of the unit.

Mostly due to the fact my spouse and I agreed on her to have zero involvment in any sort of RE investing (and its our home) I think once you have a good 6-12 months of reserve cash (operating expenses for your own life saved as a back up incase things go bad) save enough liquidity to get the ball rolling on your first invesment.

I really have zero idea what you think I should be disappointed with my PM about.  

I'm thinking about buying a property in NC.

If you are trying to get a cash out refi, I would think the bank would want to see the correct type of insurance for the business you are running.

The seller can accept your offer, reject your offer, or counter back with what he thinks it is worth.

I just started getting deeper into BRRR and think at some point I could see myself diversifying into that as well.

You can use this property to hedge any others that you add that may only cover themselves, or require supplement until they are paid off.HOWEVER, if you have decided that your goal is to use Real Estate as a stepping stone to build wealth by upgrading the property you hold each time (condo to house, house to 4-plex, 4-plex to 8 unit, etc) then I think you are right to sell now while you think the property is at the top of it's appreciation.It will be hard for anyone on BP to tell you what to do as we don't know your goal.You are right.
