BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast
Business:Investing
About to take out a HELOC to buy an investment property? This could be a move you regret for years, ESPECIALLY if you’re doing this in 2023. As home prices have risen and real estate investors search for more money to invest, the HELOC (home equity line of credit) has become an obvious choice for many. But drawing from these lines of credit could come with a lot more risk than you might think and may tank your cash flow.
David Greene is back on another Seeing Greene, live from Florida! But that’s not all; Rob (Robuilt) Abasolo is coming on to tag-team your real estate investing questions. They'll first talk to Tim, who wants to invest in real estate in high-priced Southern California. He has a townhome with some sizable equity but doesn’t know how to fund his first investment or make the most cash flow. David and Rob also hit on what to do with inherited or paid-off properties and how to scale when you lack the capital. Plus, we read a two-star review and combat it with a YouTube comment compliment from David’s secret admirer.
Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot!
