I've been painting my rental properties with Sherwin Williams White Sand for the walls and flat white for the ceilings for years now.

These retail purchases have done great.ROI in coastal So Cal has been incredible.  

This significant deceleration serves as a clarion call for investors to reevaluate their investment blueprints and adapt to the shifting sands of market dynamics.Spotlight on Real EstateDespite the general turbulence, real estate remains a lighthouse of stability within the investment sphere.

I myself fell prey to that hype in the 70's and once I realized where the facts lay, I exited in 99.

this one doesn't look to have the equity to do it, even if the outcome would give you lower payments overall. if the construction is complete on the property where the construction loan was taken out on, i would look to refi that one asap into something long term (30 fixed). that should get you somewhere likely in the 7's and 8's in today's market. hopefully lower once the project is done. 

There are so many benefits to moving some or all of your portfolio outside of the coastal states.
