Quote from @Joe Splitrock:

Keep in mind that interest deductibility follows use. In this case, Bob is taking out a personal loan for personal living expenses. That means the interest on the loan is not a business deduction. Bob would be better off using that loan to buy another investment(s) to increase his cash flow. In that case the interest is claimed as an expense against the new investment, not the original property. 

Great point, Joe!

Is the best way to tap equity without selling an interest-only line of credit, reverse mortgage, or something else? Here’s an oversimplified version of the situation:

Bob owns 5 Class A single family rental properties worth a total of $1,000,000 in the Oklahoma City metro area. All are paid off. They generate an NOI of $50,000/year. Bob's cost of living is $65,000/year. Bob would like to tap his equity every year to cover the difference between the net cash flow generated by his rental properties and his cost of living, without selling any properties.

What’s the best way to tap that equity so that it lasts as long as possible before the $50,000/year is totally tapped out and Bob has to re-enter the “pay down” phase of his properties?

What financial product best achieves this? I understand it will depend on their varying interest rates, among other things, but generally speaking what avenues should Bob look into?

Maybe it would be best to simply take out as big of a 15-30 year mortgage as $50,000/year can service, invest it all in the stock market, and then annually withdraw $65,000 until the stock market money runs out.

Any and all ideas are welcome!

I'm a local investor with a handful of single family properties who is looking for a few more. I'll look at anything that meets the 1% rule (gross monthly rent is at least 1% of purchase price) and was built after 2000 or was built before 2000 but has been recently updated. I'm seeking properties that are tenant ready and that (hopefully) won't require much short to mid term maintenance or capital expenditures. I also prefer 3/2/2 but am flexible. If you are a wholesaler or seller with a property that fits those criteria, please message me.

Thanks,

Matt
