    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.

    I’ve come across the velocity banking method and it sounds interesting. However, learning the other options, along with the do’s and the don’t, are beneficial. Great and simple explanation, with examples. I love it! Thank you for sharing! Blessings back.

Im leaning towards, that its the right move for us but I wish I could ask you for your opinion on our situation without putting all our business in the comments section 😅 lol so ill just keep binge watching your videos!

    Hey Jay. Nice to see fellow Jersey boys making it out there. I’m a bit south in Ocean County. What’s up with all these offers I’m seeing with mandatory draw amounts? Seems like the terms of the heloc are defeating the hole reason this type of loan exists.

      Hey, thanks for the kind words. my parents have a house down the shore I am there all the time. I have not heard of mandatory draw amounts. It would surprise me because HELOC's rarely go unused. Do you know which lender?

      @@JayCosta as to the video quality, you have done a great job with the lighting, editing, script, background, and everything else that goes into making a quality video. A HELOC being used is risking your home for an investment. It would be pretty terrible to tell my wife we are losing our home, because not everything went smoothly while I was just trying to make an extra few bucks. Instead, I would want anybody. I loved to be patient and save up to pay cash for any investments. Jay, I do not think that a random comment or on your video is going to change your mind. I will say that I hope everything goes well for you and that you get enough money that you no longer feel the need to use a HELOC.

      Maybe you have money in Equity in another property, or stocks/401k that you could sell, etc. Everyone has different risk tolerances, so do what you are comfortable with. But I wouldn't put my family's house on the line without an emergency plan. Thanks for watching!

    Jay, I have a question what do you mean by not using your HELOC money to put down on a down payment for any investment property or for a primary property? I’m considering taking a HELOC out on my primary home and using it for a down payment to purchase an investment property, I live in California and homes here are too expensive to buy cash. That is why I would use the HELOC money for a down payment on my investment property. Can you explain I would really appreciate it thank you.

    • @JayCosta

      Don't use your HELOC to buy an investment property unless you have an exit strategy in place, such as selling it as a flip or doing a cash out refinance after renovations. Thanks for watching!

    I don’t agree with using a heloc for anything. Have you found that by adding more debt and debt payments that you are more stressed? I bought a rental last year and although I am cash flow positive $300 a month, I don’t like the stress I have knowing that if the tenant decides not to pay, I am negative that couple months. When I pay off this house, I will not be using a loan for the next property.
