As you mention towards the end, most of us have ultra-low primary mortgage rates for our rentals, so we wouldn't want to touch them in order to refinance.  

I also own a rental portfolio and have a great network of GCs.

I'm learning the BRRRS method and want to obtain my first rental property soon. 

If you're considering this as an investment property, it's also important to analyze the potential return on investment and rental market in those areas.

To invest in a house hack, consider income consistency, minimum monthly income, emergency fund, extra savings, debt-to-income ratio (DTI), financing options, stabilizing income streams, starting small, and rental income consideration.

If the rental is in Florida, a google search says "Florida law doesn't forbid a tenant from using their security deposit as their final rental payment or for paying due rent.

I'm hoping for some guidance and any suggestions/ help is greatly appreciated.The specifics of the property are as follows:Land: 1 acre Income Generating Units: (built around 1995 all in good shape)Ranch House: Rental income of $1,200/monthMobile Home 1: Maintenance personnel reside here rent-free (not generating rental income)Mobile Home 2: Rental income of $980/monthMobile Home 3: Rental income of $1,000/monthMobile Home 4: Rental income of $1,200/monthMobile Home 5: Rental income of $1,200/monthFinancial Information:Estimated Annual Taxes: Approximately $2,500
