If so, ideally you would be able to pull out all of your funds, perhaps a profit, leave 20+ % equity, and still have the deal cash flow nicely.

And, hey, there's nothing wrong with leaving some equity in it.

I am not concerned about appreciation as long as I can get great cash flow.  

If you are looking for a spitball off the cuff number it's a fast and easy way, leaving some room. 

The loan docs and title and all of that are different animals, but us agents don't play with them and leave them to the Mortgage peeps and the attorneys.

I think that's an opportunity for you especially considering she's not going to be able to make her cousin leave from a familial point of view while you have no blood ties with the guy - and he knows it.I'd try cash for keys first with him if you can get a signature with the cash (maybe even include a clause that he gives up any property claims) and go from there.

I would like to not make any more contributions to the condo when I leave, which means renters would cover mortgage + HOA fee.

Hi all,Was hoping to get perspectives / hear stories on how others approached the possibility of selling RE assets and using the proceeds to paydown debt on other properties.Here is what I see as potential +’s and -‘s:+ increase cash flow by removing mortgages (so more passive income)+ opportunity to sell underperforming assets- less assets under management (so less potential equity appreciation)- taxable gains (will not redeploy into RE as my sense is we are near the top of the market)- 30 year fixed mortgages in place at low 4-handle rates (based on simple bond math, the value of my liability is shrinking on a relative basis as rates rise)Other facts relevant to my situation:* RE is but just one asset in my portfolio (and I’m fine with that); cash flow and appreciation are great, but I’m looking at the asset class as more of a long term hedge against inflation * not looking to leave my day job and / or replace W-2 income entirely with passive income * don’t need the cash flows from RE; again, I see the asset as a levered inflation-hedging play

Unforeeen circumstances have occurred and I will no longer be living with him and will not be able to afford to live in the house by myself while I am on maternity leave, so I will be moving back home.

I actually live in Taxus...Bada BingI would leave a message on the previous tenants number."
