Please feel free to also connect with me on my LinkedIn (in my profile) so we could discuss more!

At the end of the day a title company/RE Attorney could help sort this out for you.

You can see the effect on your equity position is of simply making the monthly mortgage payment using the rent payments.As others have said, there is no benefit to accelerating the pay down by adding extra payments no matter where they come from.Most RE investors will execute a cash out refinance at regular intervals to ensure that the equity stays in an acceptable range rather than growing too large.

You will also want to be sure to keep your eyes and ears open to the possible tax benefits of investing in RE.

There has not been any discussion of lowering rates this year any more than 75 basis points.

the goal is not to own RE; the goal is to make money.  

Bathrooms, flooring, drywall, re-carpeting, fencing, painting...I can do it if I have to, but I am in a period of my life where I have no time, and need to offload these projects.I hear people on BP podcast episodes and other Real Estate investor content and they seem to quote numbers that are 30-50% cheaper than anything I have ever been able to find.

Just wanted some feedback from any other BP members who are location independent, have worked with co-ops, international RE, or just curious.Thanks, George

I’m an agent looking to start flipping and possible rentals. I also work with investors on both flips and long term rentals. 

There’s not a lot of recent discussion about it but there are a few old posts.
