With the rise of DeFi, banks are obsolete dinosaurs for thinking that people would be content to earn 0.01% interest on their deposits.Personally I make more money with crypto than I do with real estate, but the only reason I feel confident investing in crypto as heavily as I do is because I have other stable investments like my real estate that allows me to take much riskier bets on volatile assets like crypto.

The best investment pricing I am seeing on conventional right now is 3.4-3.6% and they have been steadily rising over the past 6-8 weeks. 

Yep, we were irresponsible idiots, and as a result, my credit score is about 680 and rising. 

Great that you are cashflowing but your expenses (repairs, taxes, insurance,etc) continue to rise even when the tenant is good.

I've been fortunate to have overall good tenants but a lot of that comes from either networking or extensive background checks.Although I am trying to reach FI sooner, but when my mortgages are paid off and with modest rising rents, I should be netting at least about $100,000 a year off of three doors when I am of retirement age. 

Just look at the completed sales in your area for the types of properties you want to buy and you will likely see some names and brokerages rise above the rest. 

Effective 16.09% hike across our portfolio.  None of them were new purchases during the year.
How about you?

Usually, it comes down to:-financial stability of the HOA-any litigations-if it's low-rise/high-riseIf the above list is not an issue with your unit, there's a path forward for getting Delayed Finance for Non-Warrantable Condos.

I did a cash-out refi last summer on my primary residence and with values of homes continuing to rise I am curious if I can do a HELCO after a cash-out refi.I didn't take all the cash-out I could have as I was wanting to stay below a Jumbo on the cash-out thus resulting in remaining equity in my house.Thanks is advance for your guidance.

Every natural being needs a home, so demand for housing remains rising.
