cashing in 401k? rethinking retirement.
27 January 2025 | 9 replies
In my opinion, $90,000 is too little capital to invest in real estate within a retirement account plan.LTV's are lower when investing with a retirement account plan - Around 65%Meaning if you were to use $60,000 as a down payment, you would likely only buy a house around $70,000.$8,000 would likely go away in closing costs.

Has anyone had a successful tenant eviction in Union City NJ?
