#182: Using your home as an ATM or credit card? Is this irresponsible?
A listener and I discuss the risks and rewards of using a Home Equity Line Of Credit (HELOC) to cash out your home equity for use in income property investing.
Our guest is a Get Rich Education listener and Grammy-Nominated Music Producer Blake La Grange of San Diego, CA.
Most people settle for “Maybe someday.” Instead, optimize what you have now. Use leverage, debt and equity, and arbitrage to your advantage.
Blake & his wife played the speculative property appreciation game well. Their $585,000 home soon appraised for $700,000+. This provided equity for them to transfer into income property.
