Invest your Home Equity to Retire Rich

“Ben, I want to get started, but I just don’t have $20,000 lying around.  What can I do?”

I hear this questions more often than I thought I would, and surprisingly, most often from people who have the money to start investing in real estate.

For most people, the source of initial funds for investing in real estate comes from their current property holdings – usually their home.  Many people have “dead money”in their house, which is what I call the non performing equity that sits there, earning you nothing, day in and day out.

For example, if you own a home work $300,000, and you owe the bank or lender $100,000, there is $200,000 of dead money sitting there.  The smart use of that, in my opinion, is to put it to work making you more money!

In the video below, I explain how I’m helping one client resuscitate $66,000 of dead money, and use it to create a retirement fund for their family by investing in brand new condo townhouses being built in the Kitchener-Waterloo/Cambridge area

NOTE: This client asked us to put together an aggressive plan to reach their goals.  We have clients that are more conservative, and can help create a plan that is just right for your family, balancing your risk tolerance and investment goals.
