The house will surely continue to appreciate while I either rent out the property or Airbnb it. 

Are there lenders that will do a cash out on a property with no mortgage?

I want to flip a property while I am here.

Any referrals for agents, property management, and other area professionals would be much appreciated.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

In the long run, that property will go up in value and this may be a viable option.

This property isn’t in an A class neighborhood by any means and really just looking to update enough to be able to be livable.

@Amber ForkeyManager for all but 2 properties.

There’s likely a carrier that’s most aggressive in the city where your 4 unit is located and comparing your premium to that of similar properties  nearby will be the most accurate assessment and point you in the direction of the most aggressive carrier.

To focus on your area, research neighborhoods for trends, look for properties near military bases or colleges, and consider long-term rentals or short-term rentals in coastal areas and tourism hubs.
