Using Your Home
as a Bank: Refinancing / Home Equity Loans
One option to finance
your business may be using your home as a bank. Your ability to
refinance your home or to get a home equity loan can potentially multiply
your money and provide a good income stream.
When thinking of
financing a home business or business startup, many people traditionally
think of getting a standard business loan. While this may be
appropriate, do not fail to consider using your home as a
bank.
While it has gotten somewhat
harder to refinance home loans and enter into home equity loans and lines
of credit, it is not impossible. Using your home as a bank means you
will access a portion of your equity you have built up and put that money
to work for you hopefully making multiple times more than you borrowed
out.
Because the credit crunch of 2007-2008 has made it harder to get loans
overall, you may have to consider going to several lenders. My
suggestion is to try local banks that may have not been hit as hard as
some of the national banks.
With any decision to borrow, you need to get a
professional evaluation from an accountant, investment advisor, etc.
Borrowing is a two-edged sword: it can cut for the good and for the
bad.
