I can see in California at least where rents are minimal but the market shoots way up in equity value and when they sell they get a big payoff.In areas of low to no appreciation and long eviction times with tenant friendly states I do not see what the draw is.

We currently have around 175K in equity in our house we are willing to access some of it utilizing a HELOC but we want to get connected with investors that can help us walk through this! 

If the market stays where its at and we stay on budget for the remodel each of these three properties will probably have $40-$50k worth of equity.So in theory by May 2024 I should have about $250,000 in equity and all 5 properties (14 doors). 1 loan in my personal name I want to transfer into my LLC, one with a regular investor loan and three with loans that I will have to refinance by March 2025 anyways. 

I have secured 70% LTC non recourse financing and am simply looking for about $1M in equity but have really struggled to get any real traction. 

I often read on BP about investors who turn their primary into a rental and think they're doing great by cash flowing $300/month, until you realize they have $100k+ in equity.

I have about 130k in equity in it that I'd like to tap into to help towards purchasing another property. 

It was the right thing for her to do at the time, and she weathered the storm and now has roughly $200k in equity in the home. 

Where it gets better - Every time I write a check for the 4,500 a month, I am writing myself a check in equity.

I bout a hoarder house that everyone said should be a tear down but we put $20,000 into it and it's as solid as a rock and we gained $120,000 in equity whereas a complete replacement would have cost $150,000 and not gained us a dime in equity.

The property has $250,000 conservatively in equity and is valued at over $900,000.
