Thanks everyone, I appreciate the responses immensely. 

I'm going on my third rental property and my second bigger pockets helped I immensely.

Can anyone put me in the right direction of tapping into this equity to reinvest it in a rental property for me and my siblings to house hack in Sandiego, my whole family understands the immense benefits and is on board, I just want to see if it will be efficient or if using the equity of the house will come back to bite me.

As a newbie, it's already helped me improve immensely.

I really do want to try house hacking as it would reduce my cost of living immensely.

I believe a good mentor can help newbie investors immensely. 

Lenders have their strengths and weaknesses, so matching the lender with the client can help both immensely. 

Then write a book about your immense financial success.But don't go into a RE Agent's office today with this plan and get yourself nicely thrown out!!

They don’t come along often, but you will speed your process immensely when you find those types of properties.  ($8,400 x 15 years is $126,000 in rent alone)... neglecting rent increases, etc).The take away is that good money can be made in real estate, and until you get into it, you won’t enjoy the spoils, however you ultimately use them.
