Home equity to fund another purchase

Julia Beresfoes
Posted

Hello!  Would you use equity in one of your homes as a cash out refi to obtain cash to purchase another investment?  I am hesitant but I have $300k in equity and I would like to put it to use to work for me. Thoughts?

@Julia Beresfoes

I did a cash out on my primary to buy 3 rentals with 20% down. Best move I’ve ever done with real estate!
