This sudden jump in rates has not fully caught up with market cap rates yet since especially in the commercial and multifamily property markets, transactions typically take 6 months to transact, creating a lag effect between interest rates and market cap rates since interest rates adjust daily.

The real value of an agency should be in reducing your workload, not adding extra oversight.On a related note, having worked in this field and provided these services myself, I can confirm that the pricing you mentioned for cold callers is too high.

Hi Joel in Greenville, North Carolina-You have a rental property held in an LLC and you are looking for a lender who will refinance it.I would look into a Debt Service Coverage Ratio loan or DSCR loan that uses the rents to mostly qualify the refinance and less on you personally.

Since rental losses are typically passive, the best way to offset W-2 income is through Real Estate Professional Status (REPS) (750+ hours) or Short-Term Rentals (STRs) (100+ hours and more time than anyone else managing the property), which allow real estate losses, including depreciation, to offset active income.A cost segregation study accelerates depreciation, generating large upfront deductions.
