(Wifey and I have been doing BRRRR for a few yrs prior to this, so it was a natural fit to do that within the SDIRA LLC.)The SDIRA LLC helped me turn around the situation where we would have previously watched the AL expenses rapidly burn through their cash. 

Scenario 1: You have a high credit score, a good-paying job, and after refinancing your duplex and pulling out the $40K, you would have no trouble getting a mortgage on your own to buy another property. 

I want to roughly factor in a 60% margin after factoring in expenses so even if expenses are under I’ll pull out the additional for any potential cap ex down the road.They said they’d provide a full year rent roll and financials breakdown after contract is accepted but the gave me June.What do you think of these numbers?

seems that Chicago has some of that going around the Equity build charges by the SEC sound similar in nature.. that's one tough city to operate in..

So I’m a non resident living in the US for some time now and am getting closer to pulling the trigger on my first investment property.

With rentometer you also have to be careful about where it is pulling from.

You are correct, if all the hard pulls are done within a short period of time it won't hurt your credit. 

If you were continually pulling for personal credit like credit cards that would be a different situation. 

i have other savings set aside, but i go back and forth on how much equity i should pull out of the house when i refi.
