Warning - Risks of Loan Called Due When Investing in Real Estate
Investing in real estate adds some risk to an already risk-filled life.
However, certain activities and strategies when investing in real estate create additional risks that other strategies and activities do not have.
For example, choosing to utilize strategies where the lender has the right to call a loan due—like many types of creative financing, using home equity lines of credit, and many commercial loans—adds the additional risk of possibly having loans on your properties called due and payable in full.
Add in the fact that these often coincide with the most extreme market conditions, and it can be a recipe for disaster for you as a real estate investor... a perfect storm of sorts... extreme market conditions where refinancing or selling can be near impossible or at least impractical, and the lender forcing you to do just that very thing at the same time.
