Mike Levene Most efficient source to pull funds from for a down payment?
16 January 2025 | 5 replies
FYI I do have plenty of reserves for my other units already, but would like to keep each property separate.My question is, where should I draw funds from to pay the least amount in penalties, taxes, loan interest, etc. from the following sources I have available:- 20 year 401k loan for a property- Sell a piece of my stock portfolio at 15% capital gains tax- Take a HELOC against an existing property- Private money loan from a trusted partner I have worked with beforeAlternatively, I could pool the reserves for all my properties to ensure I can cover anything immediate and know that I could always sell off a piece of my stock portfolio if needed and have the funds within 3 business days or set up a HELOC and only draw from it if needed.Appreciate any thoughts or what you have done in the past.
