$215k+ Is principle on our home and property.

I still have about  $20K in savings (in stocks and indexes) and am continuing to save while I consider my options.

I think investors by and large somehow get the impression that the stock market is really risky but Real estate never fails..

I'd rather not touch my 401k but do have $1.2M in stock I could liquidate.

You could structure it like that, or structure it to pay the interest and principle of the loan each month too.Of course, your cash flow has to really work for this to not get you in trouble.

Water, electrical shutoffs, and how to reset outlets if they trip.Use cross collateralization of stocks for your down if possible.  

In all truth, my laminates - even the cheapest off-the-shelf Lowe's stock ones - have held up just fine and were the best choice for my B units.

The knowledge needed is real estate principles, real estate law, and real estate finance.

We have a well stocked but modest kitchen that plain works.

We do have some cash investments (stock/crypto/etc) but I really don't want to tap into those before EOY 2025.
