I would like to hear opinions on cash out refi, keep two rentals, and acquire the third home that i would live in, or sell the one rental to use equity to acquire my next home (which i would live in) and rent out the home im currently living in which will be paid off in 4 years, leaving me with one rental property instead of two.Thanks for reading Hi Wyatt,I would say the best option would be to cash out refinance the property you currently live in into a commercial loan like a DSCR loan and use the money to purchase your next home.

I agree with the wholesale option or hiring an agent to post on MLS.

The other option is to rent but to hire someone to manage your rentals.

I would think the best option for you is to try to get around as many likeminded people as you can and be active on these forums.
