This can provide additional capital for future investments and get the next one.Or evaluating other loan options:Depending on your long-term plans, you could explore conventional loans or portfolio loans that might offer more favorable rates or terms with the new appraisal value factored in.Your decision depends on your broader strategy.

For example, most anywhere will get $700 room, $75 fixed rate utilities, $700 deposit, and then offer a 36 months, 12 month, or month to month lease ($350 fee if ending lease <90 days).

I know some will differ here but I will offer my personal opinion like many others have.
