I have not done this however, my uncle had 40 properties at one time. He NEVER made a monthly income from any of his properties. He would mortgage them to the max then when equity was built he would refi and pocket the cash, doing this many times over the ownership of the prop.

WHY?, because his philosophy was to pay the least amount taxes possible. Maybe not everybodies way but it worked for him.

If I refi a rental (single family home) and take cash out how is the cash treated for taxes? Do I owe any federal taxes (Capital Gains)in the year I pull the cash out or when I sell the home?

It is TAX FREE MONEY with out a doubt! You don’t pay capital gains until you sell the property.
