Therefore, diversification can help protect your investment returns.Selling an investment property can be strategic when you aim to diversify your portfolio or seize more lucrative investment opportunities.

I was looking for help with LA county and CA state law if anyone had a direction to research.

I know this a tough time for a lot people, post hurricane disaster but I can’t help to think is this a buying opportunity in those areas?

Feel free to connect and comment anything you think may be helpful.

Hopefully this helps.

I live fairly close to Kansas City, in Wichita and I wish I could help you out with the property more.

The last thing that comes to mind would be moving the funds to a rollover IRA and withdrawing them with help from your tax advisor or CPA to qualify for the first-time homebuyer exemption. 

If you're looking to explore financing options or need support on deals, I'm happy to help.

yesss you'll want to run the numbers on a few different scenarios: 1. doing a cash-out refi (new loan amount, new rate), 2. doing a HELOAN to tap into your equity... and actually, 3. selling the property and doing a 1031 into a bigger asset that will cashflow better. condos (when doing LTR) rarely cashflow much if anything. find an investor-friendly loan officer that can help you figure out which path is right for you!

Stoked to learn, happy to help anyone I can.
