Jacob Breytspraak Multifamily or single family

Both strategies you mentioned have their merits, so the best choice depends on your goals and risk tolerance:Pulling all the cash out (cash-out refinance):Gives you a lump sum to put toward a multifamily down payment.Simplifies your focus—less juggling of multiple loans or lines of credit.But it can increase your monthly payments and debt service on that property.Using a Line of Credit (LOC) and BRRRR strategy:Keeps your cash flowing and allows you to recycle funds multiple times.You rehab, refinance, pay back the LOC, then move on to the next deal—building momentum.Requires more active management and discipline to execute well.My take:If you want to aggressively scale and are comfortable with more hands-on management, the LOC + BRRRR approach can maximize your buying power over time.
