Joseph O'Sullivan TSP Loans - Current Pros and Cons
29 March 2024 | 11 replies
I was envisioning a two part calculation for the monthly mortgage payment - I see it as a VA loan analogy with no money down but the loan structured with two interest rates (one for the TSP down payment and one for the 30 yr fixed rate mortgage).I guess the real question to ask myself (using your situation as the model, assuming positive cash flow once TSP is repaid) is whether I am okay tolerating the potential 60 months of negative cash flow to get to the positive cash flow after 5 years.- Maybe if it gets the deal going and leads to a cash out refinance before the 5 year mark that allows me to speed up the TSP pay off.Wow - Great food for thought.
