I have significant equity in a property (300k+) and maybe another 200k across other properties. I have a decent amount of money in cash and already 200k or so in stocks. Would you consider pulling money through cash out refi and using it? I get nervous for stocks being so high. I have a few properties in pipeline already. How would you suggest using it (if at all).

I feel like I’m overlooked a lot because I like to think that my work stands for itself — so I tend not to network as much. Does anyone have any tips on getting better about putting yourself out there? Any tips greatly appreciated (just a bit tired of losing to the extroverts in 2021 still)
