Hello and Happy Holidays!
I am thinking about buying a second house and have some thoughts to run by smart people.
First - how to finance.
Based on my adviser suggestion this is a no-brainer if in the current environment with interest rates of 2-3% it makes sense to leverage mortgage loans instead of paying ca$h
Then how to raise cash to pay for it on monthly basis. Say hypothetically you have substantial assets ~5-10M, AA 63/35%, some equities significantly appreciated, so tax liability is a major consideration.
Possible sources of cash:
- Selling stocks/bonds
- Stop contributing to 401K
- Selling parts of I-Bonds position
- Cash-out ROTH accounts
- stop reinvesting in stocks
What would be your plan to raise cash for monthly payments and sequence of use of the abovementioned sources?
Thx
