BP - Need your Advice!

[Andy Roper]

Hey BP world!, Beginner investor here, IT employee, planning to invest in RE(STRs or Multi family? not sure yet). Is this even right time to invest or should I wait until 23 Q1 see how it unfolds? thinking if it is right option to get heloc on my primary residence which I think I can easily get 150K out of it. I agree the rates are north of 6 or 7 %. Is this too risky? Please help me think in the right direction here. Thank you!
