**Construction Delays:** Projects can face delays, affecting your investment timeline and cash flow expectations. 

But it’s better to ask them up front (like you did) before you waste your time applying if it’s not going to be for an approved use.Also, if you’re just not sure what you’ll do with the funds, you can always say the purposes is “for cash reserves”.

Thanks Filter Criteria- Looking at stable rental income and cash flow positive properties, even if the appreciation gain is not that much. 

Is there a tax advantage if I do a cash out refinance of one of the rentals and buy the primary out right?

$450k is pretty cheap for a Cali so maybe it works as rental (don't know the strategy here) but rental cash-flow could take years to equal $225k tax free. 

I know that the house will cash flow but am curious what to expect from the appraiser on how he thinks about the new units and how much equity it will add?

You can look at the relocation as an investment in the property since it will be an issue if you ever want to sell.Years ago we only provided w/d hookups, but these days we include w/d in all units, raise the rents accordingly ($25-50 per unit) and enjoy some extra cash flow.

Maybe I could alter my proposal so that they never actually have to put up the cash, but instead just earn a fee for reselling for me.With the put option, I am essentially acting more like a bank for them and freeing up capital that they now have tied up in these loans.

Anyhow since I'm paying cash and don't need to get a mortgage on it should I still go through a proper title company to get it the title switched over to my LLC?  

Hi All,  I have a single family home that has been a long term rental I am weighing thoughts of cashing out vs renting it again as tenants vacate end of this month.
