Newbie seeking advice.

[Ralph Christian Mark Aquino]

Hello everyone. My name is Mark. I am new to the BP community. Very excited! Very new to everything. So that would explain the nerves of uncertainties running through. I have a very specific goal of investing in real estate through the equity of my home. I would really appreciate if anybody can clear a few things for me to provide enlightenment. Is pulling equity out of my current home ($100k available) a good idea? And if it is, which route would be good? Cash out refi vs HELOC vs Home Equity Loan. Any suggestions also for a company or lender that services my needs. I have done my due diligence of googling and youtubing information but I would like to supplement it with real life experience from successful investors like you. I would really really appeciate any useful information.
