This is excellent idea, we did a few BRRRR with rate-term re-fi because of the seasoning limitation of cash out re-fi.

(or other financing for a property owned free and clear that I am all ears to hear about)  I do not yet have a new property ready to purchase and my thought was that diving into uncharted loan territory may make this tax season more difficult then necessary.

This is our first year using him, so I'm not ready to give a positive recommendation, but I'll report back after tax season.

It is also worth mentioning we are coming into a slower season.  

It sounds like you might not have a ton of experience yet, so I would be a good idea to get the opinion of someone more seasoned!  

Also, you can do a cash out refinance after the 6 month seasoning period now.

I had been hoping to close on the house in mid July and race to get it up on the vacation rental sites ASAP to capture the tail end of the high season, but it looks like that's not going to happen.

Honestly I do have problems with my data, I am pulling directly from zillow, and this is stuff that is still available for rent (not currently rented) way past the traditional 'rental season'.
