To recourse or non-recourse

On a large loan, all things being equal, would you rather have a 6% loan with a personal guarantee or a 12% non-recourse loan? Assume a 10 year loan where you have cash flow rentals that can easily cover debt financing.

If the properties can debt service a million dollar loan at 12% then the savings at 6% should allow you to build up sufficient reserves where you can weather any bumps in the road thus mitigating the risks that come with a recourse loan.
