REALTY REPORT: Episode 1, Make a Down Payment and Still be able to Eat

Your Reality

It’s long been assumed that you must go cash broke to buy real estate. Putting 20 or 30 percent down on an investment property will do that to any average income.

MyREALTY™

While making a down payment of at least ten percent is highly recommended, you don’t have to deplete your cash reserves to do so. Most people shopping for property have a retirement plan. Did you know that you can rollover your existing IRAs or 401k to a self-directed IRA and use it to buy real estate? You can and without expensive tax penalties. Look up “self-directed IRA” online. You’ll be able to hang onto your cash and, with the volatility of the stock market, very well could be making a wise investment for your future.

Here the radio version.
