How are you funding the next BRRRR while you still have capital tied up?

One thing I don't see talked about much with BRRRRs is what happens when you want to start the next project before you've gotten most of your money back from the last one. Say you have one property being rehabbed and another waiting on the refinance. Now you've got a pretty good amount of capital...

Most real estate investors hit a wall around property #4 or #5.

At What Point Does Equity Become a Strategic Tool?

As an investment property appreciates, there's a difference between simply having equity and actually deciding what role that equity should play. Do you prefer to leave accumulated equity untouched, or do you periodically evaluate whether it could support another part of your investment strategy?

"Phantom equity" is the pr...
