## Resource

In this episode of Keys to Success, Litra Simms discusses the importance of timing when refinancing to preserve leverage and maximize returns in real estate investments. She explains the concept of leverage and its significant role in appreciating asset classes like real estate. Delving into the details of cash-out refinance, Litra highlights the importance of knowing when to execute it to effectively unlock capital for new investments. She advises against early refinancing and emphasizes calculating hold periods and market cycle considerations for refinancing decisions. Litra concludes with a warning against leveraging to solve cash flow problems, wherein refinancing should focus on portfolio expansion rather than patching up operational issues. The episode ends with a powerful reminder about the three key elements to a successful refinance timing: equity, hold strategy, and market awareness.
