    Man ,what are you talking about?If you put a down payment on a 500,000 house which is 100,000 then you turn around and renovate for 100,000 you are in debt for 200,000,so where is the profit sir?And you sell it for 700,000,where is the profit?

      -500,000.00 house
      +100,000.00 down payment
      =-400,000.00 finance this w bank
      -100,000.00 renovations cost
      =-500,000.00 total money spent
      +700,000.00 sells for this much
      =200,000.00 profit and if you file a 1031 you can put towards next house tax free

    THANKS. Just what I needed to watch. My wife and I got a 400k HELOC from our 780k primary home which we are still paying a mortgage for. I want to only use 200k for this new duplex down payment. I realized that the secret to making millions is making better investments and staying out of debt.
    I'm grateful to GOD for the internet space, we were able to join the credit repair program, we payed up our debt and now we are back to being the administrators of our farming business and our own properties, as well as small pensions. I am almost 56, my wife is 52. We have started saving for retirement from the farm and maybe live off rental income, I would really appreciate it if you would do a video on how to earn using Airbnb and retire comfortably.

    Do Not use a HELOC unless you're going to flip the home and sell it for a profit so you can quickly repay the HELOC!! If you have good credit and more income than debt, just get a signature loan - they're easy, no paperwork, no proof of income, no waiting for 30-45 days for approval - you'll get your money in about two hours. The interest rate is about 15%, which is about $750 a mo. for $30k. The term is only 5 years, and you can always pay it off early (after you flip the house). Be smart, don't risk your main home.

    So if I want to use Heloc for down payment, it would only make sense if I bought a ran down home with huge renovation potential otherwise the assumed value increase wont be enough to pay the heloc back after BRRRR?
    The other problem is that you or your uncle Earnie need to be a contractor because paying market rates for contractors for renovation probably so expensive that you can never just add that cost on the top of the buying value as is.

    • @JayCosta

      Does it need to be renovated? If yes, use heloc to buy, renovate and then cash out refinance. If not, just get a regular mortgage.

      @@JayCosta So essentially buy it, whether turn key or renovation needed, then instantly cash out refinance to pay it back (or at least most of the HELOC?)
      What's the usual turn around time? I'm looking into pulling out max HELOC, buying in OH (I can't afford CA where I'm at), then cash out refinance. After I lock in a mortgage hopefully cash flow $100-$300 and hold the property.

    Hi Jay, I am considering using a heloc for a down payment on a long term rental property. I need ~$50k for the down payment. I have $50k in cash in a savings account that I could use for the down payment. Would you use cash if you have it for the down payment or would you still use a heloc to keep your cash free up. If I get a renter right away and the rent can cover the mortgage and my heloc, then I think the heloc is a good route. But, if not, then perhaps cash is the better option. Thoughts? What would you do?

    • @JayCosta
      @JayCosta  Рік тому

      Long term, why not use the cash? Unless you plan on rehabbing the place and cash out refi after, I would use the cash. Let us know how it goes.

    I have a home fully paid and a second home I use as a rental property. I wanted to get a Heloc to use as a down payment for another long term rental property. I understand the variable rate and rates are high right now but since I really have no expenses I wanted to get the home and rent it out. I understand that I may be paying out of pocket for a while but eventually the rent should take care of the property. Do you think this is a good idea? Also I work at a hospital full time and make 6 figures a year.

    Hey Jay,
    Hoping you see this!
    When using a heloc to purchase a fix and flip, is it smarter to borrow the minimum amount to secure the house, or borrow the amount needed to pay for the house out right?
    When it sells, you would pay off either the mortage on the property you bought, or the heloc!
    Whats your thoughts?
    Thank you

    • @JayCosta

      The more you borrow, the more risk you are taking, but either is OK as long as you have an exit strategy. Just have to weigh your risk tolerance! Thanks for watching!

      @JayCosta  Рік тому

      A fixed home equity loan or cash out refinance for a small amount would be better in this situation than a HELOC. Dont treat a HELOC as a 30 year mortgage. They are variable with rates and can be called by the lender at any time. Which makes them great for short term but not good for long term.

      I currently own a townhouse in Central New Jersey where rental rates are notably high. I'm considering moving out of my townhouse and taking out a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) to help with the down payment on a new house. I plan to rent out my townhouse after moving down to south jersey. Given the limited housing inventory in Central New Jersey, I'm thinking about relocating to South Jersey. My goal would be to repay the HELOC within two years by selling the townhouse. Is this a good strategy? I really want time to move out slowly.

      In regards to your question 2 You recommend using HELOC for short term or fix and flip but if I want to buy an investment property and use it for AirBnB. The returns are higher sometimes double than long term rentals however I know no guarantee but you mentioned you don’t suggest for buy and hold. So my questions refers to if you don’t recommend using HELOC for buy and hold. Then what would you recommend so I can buy an investment using either my equity or any program for down payment for investment property?

    Hello, i am in the process of taking out a heloc to invest in a long term rental property but one question that i am asking to my self, is it the right time to buy a property for investment(with no renovation investment in it )? Or should I wait for properties to drop at least 30% of their value? So I can have some meat as cash flow so I can pay for the heloc interest payment and add extra money to pay for the heloc’s principal. To do this as fast a posible maybe close to two years. What do you think?

    • @JayCosta
      @JayCosta  Рік тому +1

      I dont know the future, but if you wait for a 30% drop you will never get started. If it is long term, I would suggest a normal mortgage for the fixed rate. Thanks for watching!
