ZERO CASH INVESTMENTS
\ Joint Venture \ Zero Cash Investments
If you have substantial amount of build up equity on your personal residence and it is not making any money for you. By utilizing the equity that you have as a secured Line Of Credit (HELOC), you can invest in Real Estate without using any of your own money.
This can significantly increase your Return-on-investment (ROI) because instead of using a large sum of savings (for example, $45,000) as a down payment, you would only be responsible for paying the interest on a $45,000 HELOC. At today's incredibly low interest rates, your payments over 5 years would be only $7,310. But to be conservative, you could double today's interest rate and still only pay $14,620 over 5 years.
Let's examine how this could affect your ROI:
| Initial Investment |
$179,900 |
| Down Payment (HELOC) |
$ 45,000
|
HELOC payments made by Investor $188/month (assuming average interest rate of 5% over 5 years)
| Estimated Equity if sold in 2014 |
$101,000 |
| Plus 5 years’ Cash flow |
$ 5,000 |
| Minus Investor’s HELOC Repaid |
$ 45,000 |
| Net Profit |
$ 61,000 |
| Investor’s share of Profit (50%) |
$ 30,500 |
| Less HELOC interest |
$ 11,250 |
| Net Profit for Investor |
$ 19,250 |
If the Down payment had been $45,000 cash, the ROI would have been a healthy 68% over 5 years (or 14% annually).
However, using a HELOC, your ROI (Based on $11,250 cash invested) would be 171% over 5 years (or 34% annually)
There are several advantages to using borrowed down payments:
1) By keeping your cash in your pocket, you could have more than doubled your returns.
2) Interest payments made on investments are tax-deductible
3) Your cash can be used for other purposes (such as paying down your personal mortgage, investing in other products that do not allow borrowing, or taking a well-deserved vacation!)
