Hello there. Long time lurker, first time poster. 

I've done some research about the possibilities of using a 403b loan as a source of down payment for BRRRR strategy. I'm fairly young and only have 50k in my 403B. Half of it is from employee match and appears to be, according to Fidelty, in a plain Jane 403b while my contribution is in Roth 403b. I'm vested about 45k of the 50k and was planning to take a loan for 20k for a down payment.

Here comes the question: is there any negative tax advantages of taking out a loan from 403b versus Roth 403b? When I go through the process of getting the loan, there is no distinction on where the money is coming from, but I would think it has some tax implications? I have read through multiple posts debunking double taxation from 401k loan, which is pre-tax, but could not find distinction on retirement account loans from pre- or after-tax accounts.

If anyone could shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
