Except your mortgage interest may also be 3% so you may realize nothing on your investment.
Your interest costs will be proportional to your leverage so you need the asset to outperform your interest rate to realize anything.
- jly 10y agoYes but this is a home, and not some generic investment. I can either live in the home, saving livings costs (rent), or I can rent it out and generate income, which will pay for the interest on the loan.
