I don't see a path in my current environment.  

It may be challenging to get someone to help make you a competitor in an extremely competitive environment where inventory is lean and people are less inclined to sell at a discount.

I like to think I thrive in work environments where I am independent and am motivated to work hard in a way that directly benefits me, not just my employer.

So I moved to Montana and started Fly fishing instead. 

Hi all,Given that we're in an rising interest rate environment, I think an additional value that we can extract when we sell investment properties to other investors is to assign our existing mortgage to someone else.

(I imagine that this question might be more generally interesting to people here given that so many people are likely in an environment in which it's no longer realistic to break even or cash-flow positive in so many markets). 

But, even if not, the terms are pretty good in this environment (assuming you're with a Non QM Lender and the process was reasonably easy). 1% isn't high.

However, all indicators imply the entire Boise metro area will continue to be in high demand due to people being able to work more remotely now and enjoy our quality of life (hiking, biking, skiing, hunting, fishing, white water rafting, golfing, etc.). 

Will certainly check it out.My interest/question is in the current "Fed Rate increasing" environment, is this best time to refinance if I am finishing first year of a 5 year loan that i took for a multi-family purchase last year? 

In today's environment 1 month of shopping might wind you up with a higher rate!
