Take out a loan on equity or use money in my savings ?
I bought my first rental investment 5 years ago. I can refinance to a lower interest rate and i also need to do some repairs, around $10k. Should I borrow money on the equity I have in the rental when i do the refinance or do I use money I have in my savings?
