Conclusion

Similar to my townhouse I bought, I used the proceeds from a cash out refinance on rental properties that we had bought a few years ago, to take advantage of the significantly low interest rates and equity growth on those properties.  As a result, we wanted to redeploy the cash out proceeds into additional rental property.  I am very pleased to get almost a 6 cap on a property that I didn’t have to put earned income into, rather was able to leverage equity from existing properties to redeploy.
