290: Finance FAQs: Renting vs. Buying, How to Pay Off Debt, & Creative Real Estate Closings

Renting vs. buying a home, debt payoff, and the best investments of 2022 are just a few of the topics discussed in this week’s Finance FAQs. That’s right, we’re here with a new segment where Scott and Mindy take your questions directly from the BiggerPockets Money Facebook group and give answers so you can make smarter investing, saving, and life-changing decisions.

In this episode, we get into questions from a range of different financial situations. We have questions about debt payoff schedules, whether to sell stocks and invest in real estate, why “safe” investing may not be smart investing, and what to do when three-quarters of a million dollars are given to you. Scott and Mindy not only answer these questions the best they can, but they also give the “why” behind the financial decision so you can be better equipped when situations like this come up in your own life!

If you want to ask a question or give us feedback about this new format, you can do so on the BiggerPockets Money Facebook Group or leave a comment on the BiggerPockets Money YouTube channel. We’ll try and round up the most commonly asked questions so Scott and Mindy can keep the wealth-building wisdom coming!

In This Episode We Cover

The safest investment vehicle in 2022 (and why safest doesn’t always mean best)

Whether to pay off student loans or invest in retirement and real estate

Which debt to pay off first so you can coast to debt-free freedom

Renting vs. buying in today’s hot housing market and how to decide for yourself

Funding home renovation projects (even when contractor costs are high!)

House hacking and using it to lower your expenses, grow net worth, and build financial runway

And So Much More!
