<p>The first and only guide to using MVT as a breakthrough management tool</p>
<p>    MVT(TM) (Multivariable Testing) has been heralded as a breakthrough business tool in major publications such as Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, The Economist, and Business-Week. Although MVT could become one of the most widely used management tools and has been applied by leading companies in every industry to create billions of dollars of value-no book on it has been published, until now.</p>
<p>    In Breakthrough Business Results with MVT, MVT creator and guru Charles Holland shows managers how multivariable testing-an advanced mathematical method that allows simultaneous testing of up to 40 variables-can dramatically improve efficiency and profits in any organization. MVT reveals to managers precisely which factors have a positive impact on any important business decision or process, which have a negative impact, and which have no impact at all. Very often the results are radically counterintuitive. MVT identifies quickly the best ways for a company to make major improvements, such as boosting sales, reducing waste, increasing production, enhancing advertising strategies, or optimizing service levels. Faster and cheaper than other quality improvement methodologies such as Six Sigma, MVT is a natural tool for any organization that wants to reduce the amount of guesswork and politics when making crucial business decisions. In Breakthrough Business Results with MVT, Holland reveals the dramatic benefits that have made true believers of top executives in such companies as Lowe&#8217;s, Ameritech, Williams-Sonoma, DuPont, Pacific Bell, and Boise, among others.</p>
<p>    Charles Holland, PhD (Knoxville, TN), is principal and founder of QualPro, Inc., the leading MVT consultancy in the world. QualPro&#8217;s work has been celebrated in most major business publications, and they have consulted to senior executives at many Fortune 500 companies. QualPro regularly conducts seminars on MVT, and their work has been widely publicized. *MVT is a trademark of QualPro, Inc.</p>

<h2>Customer Review</h2>
<p>With David Cochran, Charles Holland has written a book in which he explains how and why Multivariable Testing or MTV(tm) can be &#8220;a fast, cost-free `secret weapon&#8217; for boosting sales, cutting expenses, and improving any business process.&#8221; He also calls it &#8220;the greatest business improvement methodology ever devised&#8221; and it was soon obvious to me that Holland really believes that MTV(tm) really can be and do all that. He cites a number of examples to verify his claim. They include American Express, Boise Cascade, Deluxe, RR Donnelly &amp; Sons, DuPont, Lowe&#8217;s, and SBC. He also cites the impressive fact that, years ago, W. Edwards Deming strong recommended him to Ford Motor Company to train managers and suppliers in statistical thinking and quality improvement methods. Since then, his company (QualPro) has been retained by more than 1,000 corporations and completed more than 13,000 projects to provide a range of consulting services that help them to (yes) boost sales, cut expenses, and improve various business processes. &#8220;Our experience proves that the results of any process can be improved using MTV if two criteria are met: (1) the process has measurable output and (2) the people in the organization have [their own ideas] about how to improve results.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, what exactly is MVT? It is &#8220;is basically testing a lot of different variables/solutions/business improvement ideas all at the same time. When applied to a business problem, it is a 12-step process that starts with dozens of practical, fast, cost-free ideas for improvement and uses advanced statistics to quickly sort out the ideas that will help from the ideas that will hurt or make no difference.&#8221; Holland goes on to explain that the essence of an MVT improvement project is rigorous, quantifiable, accelerated learning and the knowledge and understand that result allow organizations to focus their energies on only those actions that matter and make breakthrough improvements in a short time.</p>
<p>The MTV(tm) process involves 12 steps, regardless of the business, industry, or process being tested for improvement. The process begins with selecting a high-payoff goal and creating the right environment by involving the right people, including management, technical staff, and those who actually do the work within the process. All need to be fully informed of what they will be asked to do and why it is so important that they do it well. Step 12 involves careful implementation of the most powerful ideas and calculation of their bottom-line impact.  &#8220;MVT experimentation typically is performed on only one process or one part of an operation or organization. After management decides which ideas will be implemented, the ideas must be rolled out across the entire operation or organization. It is critical that a monitoring system be established to ensure compliance with the new procedure. This ensures that the organization realizes the same dramatic benefits that were achieved during testing.&#8221; Holland thoroughly explains the entire MTV(tm) process step by step.</p>
<p>Those who share my high regard for this book are urged to check out James O&#8217;Toole&#8217;s Leading Change: The Argument for Values-Based Leadership and Dean Spitzer&#8217;s Transforming Performance Measurement: Rethinking the Way We Measure and Drive Organizational Success as well as Enterprise Architecture as Strategy: Creating a Foundation for Business Execution co-authored by Jeanne W. Ross, Peter Weill, and David Robertson.</p>
<p><strong>Wow!  Amazing claims, and results to back them up!</strong> &#8211; B. N. Holland &#8211; Tokyo, Japan<br />This book makes some truly impressive and fascinating claims, along with plenty of evidence to back those claims.  Business after business attests to the incredible power of Holland&#8217;s MVT, and the results produced for these companies who have implemented MVT in their business are nothing short of astonishing.  These results will convince even the most skeptical that MVT is a powerful tool essential to any business looking to improve processes.  A must read!</p>

<h2>Customer Review</h2>
<p>This is an amazingly revealing book about the dangers of complexity that is not consciously managed. And just what does managing comlexity entail? I the authors&#8217; words, it means</p>
<p>- Eliminating complexity that customers will not pay for<br />- Exploiting the complexity customers will pay for, and<br />- Minimizing the cost of the complexity you offer</p>
<p>In part 1 the case is made for conquering complexity in your business&#8217; portfolio (number of offerings) and processes (number of ways of doing the same thing). Part 2 develops the conceptual framework for measuring and managing complexity. In part 3, you are shown how to apply these concepts to the elimination, exploitation and reducing the costs of complexity.</p>
<p>Lastly, part 4 shows how to create an organisational culture that supports complexity management, conquer the complexity in your value chain and even apply the principles in mergers and acquisitions.</p>
<p><strong>Shipping package damaged dust jacket</strong> &#8211; cawalker77 &#8211; <br />The shipment was timely and the book arrived in good condition except for one issue.  The shipping envelope was plastic and sticky on the inside.  When I removed the book from the envelope it stuck to the dust jacket and damaged the jacket.  I would recommend that books are wrapped in a protective covering before being placed in the sticky envelope.</p>
<p><strong>Be careful when ordering this item</strong> &#8211; RG &#8211; <br />I ordered this item used from one of the listed vendors (rather than new from Amazon). What I was sent was not the book itself, but the executive overview of the book (which only includes part I). The executive overview has a very similar cover, so perhaps it was an honest mistake on their part, but this is one time to be very careful that what you are ordering is properly represented by the vendor.</p>

<h2>Customer Review</h2>
<p>A successful business is like a child at some point you have to let it go.  Like a lot of entrepreneurs, my business expertise began with a knowledge of my field, not the intricacies of corporate finance.  I&#8217;ve put everything I&#8217;ve got into it, but now I have some hard decisions to make. How do I retire? Do I keep it in the family? Do I sell it?  If I sell it, does that mean I have to work for someone else for awhile?  Rick&#8217;s book gave me real insight into successful other businesses like my own and how their owners make the decisions and structure the deals that help them make the big move out of their firms.  This is a great resource and an easy read.  It gave me what I needed to plan my next steps.  I highly recommend it to everyone who owns their own business.  It&#8217;s never too early to start thinking about it.</p>
<p><strong>Must have for family business owner</strong> &#8211; Beth301 &#8211; <br />All bases are covered with this book, and it&#8217;ll be hard to imagine selling my business without it. I have a family business, so it&#8217;s tempting (and almost expected) to just pass it along to the next generation without considering other options. Now I have some things to think about! I also thought the appendix was really useful because after reading about how to sell your business, it shows you how to actually go through with it. There&#8217;s an appendix with samples of various documents you will need, including a list of resources including business brokers, accountants, and law firms to name a few.</p>
<p><strong>good resources section</strong> &#8211; will &#8211; Bethesda<br />I bought this book mainly becuase I loved Rickertsen&#8217;s other book.  Just like the last one, this book has a great resources section that gives you contacts for a lot of different firms world wide.<br />A fun and easy read.  Rickertsen has always done a great job of explaining his subjects so that anyone can understand it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Have you ever or are you currently sending any type of mailing to your customers past? I know some people who send out a quarterly newsletter <b>Mortgage.</b> It is all printed up and shiny and has several pages which <b>mortgage</b> on it. </p>
<p> I will give you something to think about when it comes to this type of mailing. First I would like to make something perfectly clear, I have no problem with sending this type of newsletter. It serves the purpose it is to do well. IfThey are currently doing it, keep it up! </p>
<p> But let me ask you this, how affective you think it should be done? How many people do you feel the <b>mortgage</b> you read all the stuff on the newsletter? Does this newslettercontain something of &quot;interest&quot; for your readers? Such as recipes, tips, home owners, ect? Most every newsletter of this kind does not contain a &quot;special unit&quot; for non <b>mortgage</b> products. </p>
<p> I&#39;m the reason these items will be told, because people like these kind of things.It is her attention. This brings me to this &#8230; </p>
<p> If you think you need to add something <b>non-mortgage</b> your newsletter, in order to get attention to people, why not on the basis of your news letter amonthly mini version without all the <b>mortgage</b> Stuff? </p>
<p> If you physically &quot;touch&quot;, your past clients on a monthly basis with something interesting, do you think the likelihood that they would remember bebetter or worse? The purpose of the quarterly newsletter of theto keep your name before the people, right? Why not do it every month? Just a side note, memo or letter written with something interesting. Perhaps you and your family chronicle the life. Talk about your kids, your hobbies, your favorite restaurant &#8230; nothing. </p>
<p> The point is to offer people a reason to open the letter (notice I did not say, e-mail), give them something to touch and remember corporeal through. The more they remind you, a person and a friend, the better the chancesthey refer someone who is starting the end of the whole thing newsletter, right? </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The aftermath of the largest <b>mortgage</b> in the history of the industry have changed the dynamics of the real estate market probably for ever. Housing sales continue to slump less future homeowners can qualify for a loan and foreclosure filings continue to rise. Although the current snapshot of the sector looks bleak painfully to the surface, expect the opportunities savvy businessman. </p>
<p> Why consider a Foreclosure Consulting Business? The consulting business offers great incomePotential is easy to set up and run, and fills a huge demand for people in pre-foreclosure to help save their homes. </p>
<p> Did you know that was from the middle of the year 2007 an average of 925 986 applications foreclosure? At the current rate was estimated that about 1.8 million foreclosures, which should be carried out by end of 2007. A light bulb should go off factor, which also just to have a lot of foreclosures are stopped. This means that companies are required because a homeowner mustTo help stop foreclosures. Now I am not involved in the foreclosure investor, who is really a real estate investor, who asked about a homeowner on their property deeds to sign them. A real consultant will never require that homeowners sign over their property deeds. No Sir, I am talking about legitimate consultants <b>mortgage plan,</b> the work between the homeowner and the lender / bank workout to negotiate as a link or a deferred credit. This allows the homeowner inPre-foreclosure situation to keep their homes. </p>
<p> Even if the foreclosure of this process has consulting business providing trained professional consultants, to stop, as the owners know how to help foreclosure begun. Bankruptcy Attorneys often encourage homeowners to a bankruptcy to stop foreclosures file. A bankruptcy is very offensive to the credit and homeowner seven years takes long to recover. A consultant to offer better solutions to the bankruptcy to stop foreclosures. </p>
<p> AConsulting business focus to provide foreclosures in a performance that is a great demand for a highly underserved market, the distressed homeowner before foreclosure. Literally hundreds of thousands of emergency owners desperately need this service but there are only a handful of advisers partitioning of the fulfillment of this great need for the demand. Therefore, the market for this business is wide open. </p>
<p> From this type of business is ideal for real estate professionals who haveExperience as a <b>mortgage broker, real</b> estate agents, real estate investors, etc. This is also a great business for stay at home parents and those with a home base business. I have a lot of people, as seen on this type of start and consulting company, as they are successfully trained. Make no mistake about it, the need for the demand is very real and not extreme. </p>
<p> could attract on average this type of top business everywhere 50-50 plus clients in a week. TheConsultant has the luxury of setting their own service fees and collects a rule, when signing on the provision of services. If you hire an attorney they tell you to pay at a later date? Exactly, the consulting services offered are not legal services or advice but know-how, that the homeowners to save their homes must. Therefore, homeowners usually no problems with the payment of fees to have their stem foreclosures have ceased. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Whenever you have something bank errands to end, you would usually need to rise early at work. For some, this can only be as simple as asking your boss for some flexibility, but for most of us, this is an almost impossible thing to do. And since most banks are closed on weekends, your only real choice would be either during the lunch break (if the bank are long queues to go, you will not eat at all) or during the 15 minutes breaks. Ask bank customers everywhere, and they would usuallyTo say that one of the problems they have are the banks business hours. </p>
<p> Therefore, most banks now offer extended opening times to increase customer satisfaction to work with other banks to offer more hours of service, in competition to capture a wider audience and to meet customer demands. The reward for long hours but overhead costs will tend to increase, with more power consumption, which in the course of time hours and paid the night differential to employees who are to cover theThe latter part of the day. </p>
<p> So more business hours are really worth? Take, for example, Commerce Bank. Your industry has caused an average of 40,000 visitors per month, mostly to the fact that their banking hours are longer, covering periods that are more convenient to the average customer. And since the launch of their new hours are now their deposits increased by 28 percent! </p>
<p> Commerce Bank also provide services on Sundays, the first of a test run, that had to bewas permanently in place as the reaction of the customer as positive, the first Sunday of work have even been expanded. </p>
<p> Apart from Commerce Bank, TCF also offers service to 20.00 clock. This bank also applies to weekends, so you think your banking business without that you eat up precious opening times during the week to do on the bank transaction, you want to use does not spend time with your family can do. They are also a handful of them during holidays, where you have to comb through openthe entire metropolis in search of an open bank. </p>
<p> Some Wachovia bank branches in <b>Atlanta</b> and Greater Washington area are also joining this trend, because they offer extended opening times during the week and on weekends to better serve their clientele. However, not all stores carry this way, so it is best to Wachovia on a call &#8211; (800) -WACHOVIA to note which branches the long hours of practice. </p>
<p> Bank of America on the other side offers only hours, extended depending on customer demand. What happenedpreviously was that due to a large number of customers for Certificates of Deposit savings, Bank of America to extend its opening times of the banks operations and decided to Saturday, that particular week. </p>
<p> In which side you look at it, banks have extended business hours, definitely an asset to the bank. If you juggle your family, your demanding career, put in a touch of transport and office romance, you will see that you end up doing with less and less time for other things. So after a bankto adjust his hours for you, so he is fit your schedule a real blessing. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Green cleaning is the use of products and methods that are environmentally safe and friendly. It is a process that protects health and that doesn&#8217;t harm the environment. Generally, products are used that won&#8217;t make you sick, and the products are made of ingredients that have not harmed a soul. Eco cleaning is kinder, gentler, non-invasive cleaning, if you will.</p>
<p><b>Fad or Trend?</b></p>
<p>Every industry has fads and trends, and I, personally, don&#8217;t believe cleaning green is a fad, but rather an industry trend that has fast-become &#8220;mainstream&#8221; and an expected option in certain areas of the cleaning industry.</p>
<p>On its website, ISSA (The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association) reported, &#8220;Green cleaning is arguably the number one trend in our industry and is showing no signs of slowing down.&#8221;</p>
<p>To further highlight the importance of eco cleaning in the janitorial industry, Inc.com sited starting a green business as one of the top business start-up options to consider. And, the U.S.&#8217;s well-known previous VP, Al Gore, has created a dynasty around the importance of &#8220;green&#8221; and saving the environment.</p>
<p><b>Green Cleaning Networks</b></p>
<p>There are whole green cleaning networks out there for which membership is available to give your company validity in the industry. One was mentioned above: ISSA, The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association. ISSA has a whole section on their website dedicated to green cleaning.</p>
<p>Another such organization is the Green Cleaning Network. It&#8217;s a nonprofit whose goal is the sharing of information and ideas, via online discussions, education forums and more in an effort to promote eco-type cleaning to the betterment of humans and the environment.</p>
<p><b>Should You Offer Green Cleaning?</b></p>
<p>Should you offer green cleaning as part of your foreclosure cleanup services? Hmmm, that&#8217;s a personal preference. But I say, in the beginning, use the KISS principle: Keep It Simple Start-up! Besides, you will be concentrating on foreclosure cleanup, and right now, in the REO industry, banks and <b>mortgage</b> companies are concerned with property preservation, security and safety. I don&#8217;t see them shelling out money on eco-friendly cleaning any time in the near future.</p>
<p>Remember, banks and <b>mortgage</b> companies want to get back to the business of lending money, not managing real estate, which is what many of them are having to do now with all the foreclosures on hand.</p>
<p>Besides, you will have enough on your hands in starting this business, getting organized, maintaining databases, giving estimates, etc., than you realize as a new venture. And, considering the times, and assuming you&#8217;re doing most things right, you will start to grow quickly.</p>
<p><b>Feeling Passionate?</b></p>
<p>But, if you feel passionately about offering this service, by all means, offer it, tout it, go for it! But perhaps consider starting out offering certain elements of green cleaning instead of marketing your company as a full-fledged green cleaning company.</p>
<p><b>Ordering Products</b></p>
<p>Also, consider ordering your eco-friendly cleaning products from the smaller vendors that don&#8217;t require a minimum order. This way, you may not have to buy in quantity, but you can still have the necessary products on hand and will be ready to offer &#8220;green&#8221; as part of your services.</p>
<p>Good luck with your foreclosure cleanup business!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A balloon <b>mortgage</b>, also called a reset <b>mortgage</b>, offers lower interest rates with the option in 5 or 7 years to pay off the balance or resent the loan. Considered more risky than an ARM since interest rates can jump significantly, it is a valid option for those expecting to move or interest rates to drop.</p>
<p><b>Balloon <b>Mortgage</b> Features</b></p>
<p>Balloon mortgages are based on a 30 year amortization schedule, but you only pay those payments for 5 or 7 years depending on your loan&#8217;s terms. At the end of that period, you are required to make a balloon payment for the rest of the principal or resent the <b>mortgage</b> at current interest rates. Some financing companies also offer the option of refinancing the home loan.</p>
<p>With its unique interest rate structure, you can qualify to borrow more than a with a fixed rate <b>mortgage</b>. Balloon mortgages also have interest rates lower than a traditional home loan.</p>
<p><b>Balloon <b>Mortgage</b> Numbers</b></p>
<p>Balloon mortgages, like ARMs, use numbers to describe terms. The first number is the number of years until you reset the loan or make the balloon payment. The second number equals the rest of the loan term. Together both numbers equal the loan&#8217;s amortization schedule.</p>
<p>So a 7/23 <b>mortgage</b> means that you have 7 years until the balloon payment is due, 23 year&#8217;s worth of principal. Adding the two numbers together, your loan is amortized for 30 years.</p>
<p><b>Reset Requirements</b></p>
<p>In order to reset your loan, you have to qualify by still occupying the home, having no liens against the property, and having made on time monthly payments for the last year. If you don&#8217;t qualify to reset the <b>mortgage</b>, you may be able to still refinance the loan.</p>
<p><b>Balloon <b>Mortgage</b> Considerations</b></p>
<p>Balloon mortgages don&#8217;t have the fluctuating interest rates of an ARM, but they don&#8217;t have the caps to safeguard against extremely high future rates. You may also find that due to a reverse in your financial situation you many not qualify to reset or refinance your home, and have to sell it to meet the balloon payment. In the end you are trading security of a fixed rate for lower interest payments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Did you know that it has more millionaires in the real estate business then made from any other opportunity ever? Did you also know what most millionaires have in common, there is a common link between them is that they&#39;re in business. Your own business! </p>
<p> This is a true fact, if you are a millionaire you need to become a business want to work 9 to 5 for someone else will not make you rich, this is only the time you rent for a dollar. </p>
<p> So what to do if you do nothave the option of cash flow or to open to your own business. Open your mind and think! </p>
<p> What is a business opportunity that has created more millionaires then any other business in history? Well, the real estate and financial industry, where something is at one point the majority of people need is at least once. </p>
<p> Imagine betting educated in business and get access to the best Real Estate opportunities available on the market. </p>
<p> Into real money realReal estate, you have access and know where to look for real estate, this is the real key to big profits. Now that does not mean taking advantage of vulnerable people in their time. I believe that those investors who actually help the people in the process those who are in bloom. </p>
<p> There is a rule that I always lived by, (you have to back into the well for the well to always have water), How do you think you would feel if you were to make real money while helpingPeople. I bet you would feel! </p>
<p> This is what the real estate is probably to be, I can look back on 17 years of my career and remember all the people I helped, either within their home country, or out of this is the greatest feeling. If you do a good job and people know that you were their best interest at heart, they tell you. </p>
<p> I&#39;ll tell you a great story, only to get a feel for how good it feels to help people give. A few years ago I was on TV Ihad shown a real estate and financing that education was the consumer of owning and financing real estate, it is also a live call-in show. People would call and ask questions they had and did not know whom you ask. The show allows me to reach millions of people simultaneously and give you the best information for the public. </p>
<p> Now back to the story! I did get a call into the show, it was a woman who lived in a bad spot, and wanted to know if she could buy a house to the children theyto live a better place. She had no idea how to do that, I ask you a few general questions, like Job, need, and. </p>
<p> I told her then to my office number, which she knew to call immediately, now I did not know their situation, so I get an appointment for them to my office. When she came I able to ask her more private, personal questions to find out if I could in fact help her to buy a home was. </p>
<p> What they started telling me blew me away! She was a single mother withtwo children live in a real bathroom stifled development in drugs and crime. In that moment I knew I had to try and help her get her children out of this situation. You see, I am firmly convinced that the more you know that more people can help and the more you help the people, the more you&#39;ll do. </p>
<p> In order not to get all the details, I tell you, I gave her some homework and told her that if they do exactly as I told her I told her and her children would get a new home. Just toTo make a long story short they did everything I told her in 45 days and her family moved into their new home. Here&#39;s the best part that made me really feel me like a million dollars. I went to the house I was living where they had to sign the papers for them. When I went to were the two small children there and the little boy asks me what I had in my hand, looked with big brown eyes. I looked at him and said that they were the papers for his new home. When the little boy looked up and mewith tears in his eyes and said (MY NEW HOME), I felt like I had never felt. </p>
<p> Just to get up to speed, where this little boy was the week before I his mother the little boys and girls got to see their mother until they had tied up and robbed. I knew at that moment, I had to do HELP! </p>
<p> Now this is where knowledge of and access to programs and real estate, gave me the ability to help them, there at home. If you want to make big money, enters the economyHelp people and make you richer then you ever thought was possible. </p>
<p> Now get into the business at the time when the industry is in deep trouble, sounds bad! I say to you: No, it&#39;s not, let me tell you why! In today&#39;s markets across the country, people are in trouble and need help if it is projected that there will be more than 2 million foreclosures. This is a market for IT self-employed. The people who are in foreclosure need help and if we can help them to make a fortune and at the same timeto help them. </p>
<p> Do you think the people do lose their homes, are still need a place to live. If you are in a position to them there through the sale to an investor at home, which can in turn lease the home back to them, this is not helping the homeowner and better serve the good help. This is called the Lease program, own! </p>
<p> Now here is where one is really great progress in your own portfolio of properties, all you need to do to buy the apartment and rented them back their ownPerson in need. It is a win, win for both sides! </p>
<p> How to get into the business of real estate and finance in the shortest possible time to take advantage of this huge market that is growing really.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> You own a rental property for years, and never the &quot;big pay-off.&quot; Is it time to cash in on your investment because you&#39;ve now paid down the <b>mortgage</b> and values? Maybe not. </p>
<p> <b>The problem in selling</b> </p>
<p> Sell means to pay a large capital gains tax. This can be avoided if you reinvest through the exchange of A 1031, then but the point is that you want your money, right? Furthermore, will rise a good rental income of more than rents. Do you want to lose thisInflation-indexed retirement plan? What is the alternative? </p>
<p> <b>Refinancing Rental Property</b> </p>
<p> Have you considered that if you refinance, you can get plenty of your profit from property without having a penny in taxes? Borrowing money is not taxable to an event. You can take it and spend it as you want, and you still keep your rentals. </p>
<p> Consider an example. Suppose you have a small home for years in family ownership. They bought it for $ 240,000 with a deposit of$ 40,000 and <b>mortgage</b> payments of $ 1,650 per month on the scale. It is now worth $ 400,000, you owe only $ 120,000, and your cash flow is around $ 800/month. How do you get on the equity? </p>
<p> A bank will probably loan you 70% of the value or $ 280,000. After repayment of the first <b>mortgage,</b> you are left with $ 160,000. With today&#39;s lower interest rates, payment on the new <b>mortgage,</b> your are about the same. At most you might lose $ 50/month in cash flow. </p>
<p> An even betterScenario: Use $ 40,000 for high-return upgrades to the property, such as carports or laundry rooms, and then raise the rents. They would spend more than $ 120,000 in any way you left, and have higher cash flow. Sounds better than selling your retirement? Not For Sale. Refinancing, that the object! </p>
