Real estate can appreciate overseas but you could still lose money based on currency exchange rates and strength.

I've heard a tremendous amount about using promotional 0% interest business credit cards to fund buy-and-hold investment deals.

Now with the borrowing rates being where they are, I'm not sure if that's a good financial move.

But given the high-interest rate and expanded cap rate environment, I feel like there may be some good opportunities for vulture GPs/Operators.

Well-known connection from college runs the fund operating the syndication.

I found Third Fed Credit Union with a great rate prime - 1.01 = 2.24% for balance over $50K.I have a great rate on my Primary home (in CA) and investment property so I don't want to do a cash-out refi.

Critical Update: Waiting too long for the Fed to cut rates could significantly impact your approval chances.

It is the funding that I am lacking.I feel that I am in a stalemate and the only way to purchase my first rental property is to generate more income than I am right now to get to the point of being able to pay the downpayment.Thank you all for reading this post and I appreciate any responses and advice.

This allows you to borrow against the equity in your current home and use those funds for the down payment on your new rental property.

I would wait till rates eventually go down and there are real opportunities in real estate and take advantage of it then
