To refinance or not to refinance
Big dilemma. Since I’m refinancing I have a couple of options.
1.refinance for 60/40 LTV
OR
2. Refinance for 80/20 LTV
I don’t have a crystal ball. But if the market dips or whatever happens to these buyers that have adjustable commercial mortgages coming due and might be a possibility to scoop up a couple of properties.
Or just sit on the sidelines with cash on hand till a good deal comes along.
I’m debating if the higher mortgage payment is worth it since a recession supposedly is near.
Or just do the 60/40 LTV to have a smaller payment.
So cash in hand and a higher mortgage payment
Or
Less money and a smaller mortgage payment.
What would you do?
Thanks

if you believe you can safely invest at a higher rate then your borrowing at take the cash out and reinvest it.
