Unless you plan to sell your home soon, cash out refi it.  

There's a stark difference in tax rates between legal residences (primary residences) and investment properties/second homes. 

and the fact that rent goes up overtime as well.I know some will keep pulling money out of rentals to buy more or use the money elsewhere, but then they have very little equity in the home. 

Scenario:I have about 8 months left and am looking to finance a duplex using my VA home loan, with the intent of house hacking it..

Any tips or strategies would be greatly appreciated!

I purchased a well-maintained single-family home in a growing suburban community.

Hey Community,I bought a house as a First time home buyer, but I feel like I’m stuck with one property because of capital.

From my experience, a 1031 doesn't necessarily pay attention to the amount of equity you have in a home, just the sell price.

I'm looking to deduct HELOC interest for costs related to making improvements on a primary home that is also used as a rental.
