MYTH: transferring debt to heloc will pay Debt off soonerBUSTED!

And how much is your debt service, around $6,500? 

Or paying off my debt, while I provide them with a nice house to live in instead of an apartment. 

I make around $110k+ per year, live off around $75K, have a mortgage ($1900/mo for rent, escrow, tax), around $40K in equity, and no other debt. 

I have very little debt besides mortgages and have spent my own money doing renovation over the last few years.

A good DST would absorb the rest of your debt nicely.

I imagine the only way it would be possible is to do the bulk purchase in cash, sell off a couple and then put debt on them?

@Daniel Tanasa   Unfortunately that is not correct when it comes to mortgage debt.

To Sum it up, its a good idea if you can exceed the cost of capital (higher rate than your cost of debt) with what you earn on your heloc/debt you pull out and invest.The question is how much gains above is enough to substantiate the risk of your variable interest rate, well thats up to your personal investing criteria.

You can lend at higher rates or look for debt funds that are taxed differently.
