21:50||Season 2, Ep. 42In this episode of the Help Me Buy Property podcast, Mr. Chuy from Strategic Brokers made a comeback to discuss more intriguing topics revolving around mortgage. During our discussion, we touched topics like loan porting and cross - collateralization and how these strategies can make all the difference for property investors. Mr. Chuy explained how loan porting is an incredibly useful tool that can allow you to transfer your existing loan to a new property when you sell your current one, something that’s especially valuable if you locked in a lower interest rate before recent hikes. For investors looking to maintain stability while expanding their portfolios, loan porting can be a game changer. Then there’s cross -collateralization - a strategy that may seem convenient but often causes more problems than it solves. During discussion, it was agreed that by using multiple properties as security for a single loan is a risk which means you are tying your hands when it comes to accessing equity or selling individual properties. If the market shifts and the value of one of your properties drops, you could find yourself in negative equity, where the amount you owe is greater than the property’s worth. The conversation was wrapped up on this note that how important it is to have a knowledgeable broker by your side. A good broker can not only steer you clear of financial pitfalls but also ensure that the strategies you use - whether it’s loan porting or something else - align with your long-term goals, helping you grow your portfolio with confidence.
