Using home equity loan for downpayment on investment property
Hi - I'm new to the site, and wanted to jump right in by posing a question for the community...
I would like to acquire a property, but am short $20-30K for the downpayment. That said, I have $300K+ equity in my primary residence. Is it possible to (and/or advisable to) draw a home equity loan against my primary to bridge the shortfall for the downpayment and help me acquire the property? Any alternatives or red flags I should be thinking about?
Any thoughts or suggestions on this would be much appreciated!
