I have been met with a few objections, and would like to know what your thoughts are on each (and maybe some counter-arguments that I can use):-It's a seller's market / houses are overvalued and prices will drop soon-There's too much uncertainty in the economy with COVID-19-It will be hard to get people to rent during a pandemic-The election in November may have an impact on the economy, housing market, etc.Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Refi Cash-Out vs HELOC?
18 July 2020 | 1 reply
Although I prefer doing a refi vs a HELOC because the added cash out is termed out over 30 years and has less of an impact on my cash flow, my concern is I'm not sure if my property will appraise high enough to conform to the 75% LTV with the cash out and I dont know how long the process will take (2-3 months?).
