@Lauren Ruppert  Cash out refi only in the husbands name which will take the ex wife off the financing/title and use the cash out proceeds to pay out what is owned to the ex wife.

Quote from @Brendan Doherty': I’ve read in books of people getting past having to live in the property they own so they can rent all units year one of ownership(living on the property with an rv).

What I recommend people do is tell the lender ok great I am going to want to use my own title company to close this so funds would go to them.

I’m a 41-year-old father of six who loves the Lord and is driven by a desire to build a better future for my family through real estate.I own a small tile installation business, am a certified insurance agent, and am currently in the process of obtaining my real estate license.

A property that I own was on the market. 

To help you with running your own analysis I find it helps to use an example, so I will give an example from my own market.

Sharma, From my perspective I prefer to run my own fix and flips.

For OO owning it for 2 years of 5 gets $250K gains per spouse of tax free gain.  

I invest, flip, and own a property management company in CT. 

Sounds like you’re trying to google and perform your own heart surgery.
