Obviously this means you are staying in or near your market unless you are willing to move.

@Trina Pugmire I have a career in technology and moved away from Wordpress.

and be thinking 5 moves ahead ..

I am under the impression that 401K monies has to be moved to an IRA account in order to invest in RE. 

Therefore all it takes is an incredibly successful property or a complete dump that has a hot tub to move the numbers in one direction or the other.

We are now looking to move out and rent the rest of the home 4BR/2Bath for around $2400/month which we’ve been told is a good number.

I need to move a property from one of my LLC's to another one.

I am NOT adding square footage or moving load bearing walls, just a face lift and new floor plan.

And the reciprocating question is if he moves too quickly to de-escalate the rates do we see an uptick in CPI that very next month.

Given your situation, tapping into the equity through a HELOC could be a smart move, allowing you to access capital for new investments without selling off your current assets.That being said, considering your stable cash flow and existing portfolio, a DSCR loan could also be valuable.
