Should i use a HELOC

Joseph Lombard
Posted

at what point does it make sense to use a heloc on an investment property

would you use one to buy the property cash (house is worth $50k) not a lot of room for appreciation, but the rents make sense for me to sit and hold it.

in what situation have you guys used a heloc?

just be cautious when it comes to using these. ensure you've got a plan to pay that balance back in a relatively quick fashion as most HELOC rates can fluctuate which could make the numbers suddenly not work.

i've leveraged mine in instances where i'm doing a BRRR and i want the deposit for a private money loan. i'm not using it as my downpayment and leaving it out there for a long period of time.
