My last property, I listed it at $299,990 and did not look at any offers below $350,000.

The purchase was $375,000 and the rest was used for renovations.My cost bases in the building will be around $740,000.I refinanced the building with a $900,000 loan.I have an offer on the building of $1,400,000Total capital gains would be about $660,000So, my question is after selling the property (for easy math) lets say I walk away with $500,000 after paying off the bank loan.

Shoot me a dm whenever you get the chance I have some good advice and some offers for you.

Obviously they are able to lower their rates without loss of investors, because people (probably newer investors) are lining up to offer their (hard) money at rates as low as 8.25 percent.
