Buy. Renovate. Rent.
Refinance. Repeat.
An investor targets a two-unit property with dated interiors and room to improve rents. The plan pairs purchase and rehab financing with a rental refinance once the work and leasing are complete.

- $62,500
- Planned exit
- Cash-out refinance and hold
The initial $425,000 facility would leave $75,000 of the purchase and renovation budget to the investor, plus closing costs, financing costs, carrying costs, and reserves. At a $650,000 appraised value, a 75% LTV cash-out refinance would total $487,500. After paying off $425,000 of bridge principal, $62,500 would remain before refinance costs and any additional payoff charges. That would leave $12,500 of the original purchase and renovation equity in the deal, plus costs and reserves. Cash-out proceeds are returned equity, not profit. Actual refinance proceeds depend on appraised value, qualifying rent, debt coverage, seasoning, and lender approval.
