    I don't see why you couldn't unless your state has some weird real estate pracices that I do not know about, but you should probably be calling a local bank or mortgage broker and give them the scenario and see what they would say.

    Yeah, if your credit's good, do a cash out refi the next week, and pull out a good chunk of your equity. If you go over 80% of ARV, you gotta pay PMI, plus, well, keep in mind, you gotta be able to get enough in rent, if you intend to rent it out, to cover your mortgage, plus have a bit extra left over to cover incidentals.

    I like to thank everyone for there great return answer.
    No this property is free and clear, no mortgage on it, thanks God. This gentleman is moving out of the country and he wants out for little cash. its in a very good neighborhood and all. What if my credit score is only 560 and I don't have a stated income. Because I'm a bird dog? can someone still give me a loan? I have a few properties with equity in them.

    I only wants to pull $30,000 out. Can a lender hold the property as a security for repayment of the loan?

    i am not sure if u can refi with a FICO that low and not have a high interest rate, but nonetheless do some lender shopping and ask questions BEFORE u apply nd they pull credit. Just give the general scenario.

    However, I have been told my a few mortgage brokers and some investors that some lenders require a minimum 6 mo seasoning on the title and/or loan after purchase b4 refi. It may depend on your state. Any takers to calarify that?? smile

    Most common time is 12 months wait. Some have 6 month wait and some have zero. A competant mortgage broker who specializes in non-prime lending can probably solve your problem (or their not competant).

    You state that you are a bird dog, you have no verifiable income and that you have a low credit score.

    The property has equity and it is likely someone could pull out cash. With your personal situation pulling out equity will be difficult, expensive and maybe not the best idea. Selling might be better then trying to pull out the equity. You also have to consider what happens after the equity comes out (cash flow).
