Some landlords are using cash-out refis to buy new properties or do upgrades.
It’s a risk, but in the right deal, it pays.
Would love to hear how people balance that.

Hi everyone,
Quick thought for those managing multiple doors — have you considered a cash-out refinance to strengthen reserves or fund maintenance and upgrades?
We’ve seen several investors improve property performance by refinancing strategically — unlocking equity that was just sitting still.
Even with higher rates, it’s about positioning your cash flow wisely.
Anyone here recently done a refi on a rental or small multifamily? I’d love to hear what’s been working for you.

Hey landlords and buy-and-hold investors!
I’ve been talking with a lot of owners lately who feel stuck because they don’t “fit” traditional loan requirements. That’s where DSCR loans really shine — letting the property’s income qualify instead of your personal documents.
Curious what kind of DSCR terms people are getting lately? Let's chat — and if you'd like an example of how we structure these, I'm happy to share.
