Terms can vary widely in this category from annual interest rates, prepayment penalties, income calculation, DSCR ratio, maximum loan to value, minimum and maximum loan size, amortization period, and requirements to escrow taxes and insurance. 

On the east side, in Redmond, we are currently living in a property worth probably 1.6 with about 600K outstanding - and a monthly payment of about 4K including mortgage, insurance, property taxes etc.Looking to leave the area.Does it make sense to rent it out given that I’ll probably get 4K in rent?

I consulted my cpa and he states that I will owe 100,000 in taxes leaving me with 600,000.

I invest in tax sales, mainly land.

I don't care if peddlers peddle appreciation/tax benefits/blah blah.If inflation is at 8% yoy, then appreciation of 3-4% in real estate yoy on average reduces your wealth.Thank you for this post.

Sell - Would prefer to avoid this to keep my low interest rate (3.3%) and avoid fees/taxes. 

Cost segregation studies can offer real estate investors massive tax benefits.

She might not qualify for another loan, unknown it depends on if she can show it as positive rental income but with your plan it sounds like she won't have tax returns in the future to make this work. 

Any ballpark idea what percentage our property taxes would go up if we went from 2 to 3 units and how does that get plugged into the calculation?

I am also extremely interested in Portfolio loans, but I have zero contacts dealing with those types of loans.Finally, I have an 'excellent' credit score, no debt at all besides 5 other rentals at 75/25 LTV (all cash flow positive) and a job that I claim over 100,000 in taxes, and have three years of consistent tax returns showing that.
