I have 2 rental properties(a 2 family home that I bought 9 years ago that needs new roof eventually and a short term rental a few hours away up north that has a 5.2 rate and is very updated) I used a cash out refi in 2021 for the 2 family to take out 25k(and it lowered my payment, went to a 3.2 rate for 25 years for the 2 family) and then used that 25k to buy a 240k cabin up north to use as a short term rental and family vacation home.2023 was the first full year for the cabin and it brought in 25k, however expenses were 36k, so 11k in the negative.
