I have equity in a rental property that I want to access but I am not sure what my strategy is.This is just a bump. 

Looking around online it seems other condos in the area are renting for $1300-$1400 a month.

There are a lot of PM software systems that allow you to bill and collect rent online.

Mine are too small to have on-site management, however I DO have gated access control which allows me to control traffic into the properties.

Purchased and began my online real estate license course (via Kaplan). 

There is free software out there that will effectively market your property, screen tenants, price your rental based on comparable properties, provide renters insurance and online applications, etc.

Some will even give you a credit line up to 90%+ of home value.It would allow you to access a lot of that equity to use for down payments or cash buys.The downside is that HELOCs are usually floating rate.That’s probably the easiest way to minimize fees, keep your properties performing, and expand the portfolio.

Use your access to military tenants as an advantage too.

Luckily, much of the necessary info is meanwhile online.

If it's a management company, you can try finding the company's contact info online.
