Wealth and Wisdom Together

Mar 12 2024 • 31 mins

In this episode we continue our 3-part series answering client questions with our second inquiry.  Today’s question is, " How do I access the equity in my home and use it to meet some of my pressing goals without damaging my personal finances or putting my home at risk”?


Your home is an investment, and the equity in it can serve as a powerful financial tool if leveraged properly.  It is important to approach home equity strategies with caution, prayer, and a clear understanding of the potential impact on your financial well-being.


Reasons to access equity may involve consolidating high-interest debt, making vital home improvements, or investing in other appreciable assets.   Prudent use of home equity, combined with proper financial planning, can significantly enhance your financial stability and your access to meet your pressing goals.
