Hey Linda! Looks like you have ample amounts of repairs/capex set aside, which is always good. I would say the loan interest rate will likely be more around 5.5% due to rentals having higher interest rates. Down payment will likely be 25% not 20% due to it being duplexes
How confident are you on the area and the rehab costs?

Hey Julie! Why not just refinance that property or get a HELOC against it? How much could you then pull out?

Definitely was an opportunity, but there are always more opportunities. Hard to come by obviously but they are out there :)
Our group passed on a senior living facility last year when it was worth about $13m due to our capital being tied up at that moment, fast forward to today and it is now cash flowing 15% per year and worth about $20m or so due to the new owners optimizing the property as we likely would have. It was a B class facility and was very well maintained! Kick myself all the time for not pursuing more haha

@Dominic Licerio Just call/email the brokerage to liquidate your account and you should be good to go from there! It'll take a few days to sell all the shares off
What are you planning to invest in next?! (what type of property)
