That could make financing the rehab a little smoother.3.FHA 203(k): If the rehab costs and scope fit within the FHA guidelines, refinancing into a 203(k) loan could work.

There was quite a bit of unused land and the zoning gave me some flexibility if I wanted to expand various aspects of the property.Also the self storage units were all below market rent and the seller was willing to finance at a decent rate with a 5 year balloon.

Any helpful tip or feedback, please?

It's a love hate for sure lol.I host a monthly meetup focusing on finance and real estate investing.

@Shin Nishikawa Right now it is still difficult for foreigners to get financing from Japanese banks.

Additionally, depreciation deductions on the multifamily property could offset a portion of your rental income, further enhancing returns.Key considerations:- Financing the multifamily: Would you go all-cash or use financing?

I actually got caught up in the creative finance bubble of trying to lock up properties way over their value just because it had creative terms not realizing that if you were to buy a property at 120% of its value you will never be able to refi or sell without paying out of pocket.

The bank will make you leave 25% equity in the property - but you also still want the property to at least cash flow some - so be careful how much equity you pull out / new debt you take on.I would do a cost benefit analysis of what your actual gain is in cash-flow on buying a new property with a (currently) higher interest rate (if financing), versus just holding on to the current appreciated property and enjoying that cash flow.All the best!

Hey Jason - if it's a 1-4 unit, you would need to value it based off the sales comp approach (assuming the buyer is using debt financing).

Some ideas I've considered:Equity Buyout: Having another investor or my partner buy out my 40% equity.Seller Financing: Selling my equity and offering seller financing to the buyer.Selling the Property: Liquidating the property entirely and splitting the proceeds.Does anyone have experience with situations like this?
