I noticed that a lot of insurance companies are starting to drop multi-family are home in Texas What's some good commercial insurance for rental properties that will take on the state of Texas

Strange experience... went to redfin to see what it says about my property... virtually nothing there but then my property typed out with (unit) #2 shows up with all my details.

Quote from @Landon Lehmann: If you cash out equity in a property, you are "borrowing" that money from the lender.

If I purchase a property with cash, can I still obtain a mortgage later?

Find a neighborhood you like, find a house you like, buy it, and hold it.Focus on learning to analyze individual properties.

I bought one rental property and flipped three.

Section 8 is harder to do as the prices of properties have skyrocketed.

Keep leveraging your knowledge of local opportunities to acquire your first property and expand from there.Financially, reinvest your earnings, and make sure you have a solid grasp of cash flow and expenses before making your first purchase.

If you had a paid off rental house, and others with mortgages, and you wanted to use the equity in the paid off rental for a cash offer on another property, how would one do that if the DTI ratio doesn't work due to having too much credit utilization with the addition of the new loan.

Good income producing property.
