Loan or cash
I do know there aren’t any ensures in life, however I consider the mathematics assuming averages, does assist this concept and was questioning about totally different views.
For example:
300k mortgage @7% for 30 years = $718,000
300k funding @7% for 30 years is $2,228,677
You’d be higher off taking the mortgage and Investing the money you’ve got. The distinction in these {dollars} is predicated on the amortization of the mortgage, and the compounding of the 300k funding.

The mortgage steadiness is reducing over time, whereas the funding steadiness is growing over time. That’s, the 2 steadiness curves diverge on the very starting itself, one going southwest and the opposite going northeast. This isn’t a good comparability.
There may be additionally the danger you identified, that the 7% just isn’t assured return however is a assured legal responsibility by way of the 30 years.

In any case I do not disagree with the idea, I simply do not assume it is all that good with 7% mortgage charges and a watered-down curiosity deduction (given SALT limits). At 2.5-4% charges pre-2022 completely I am on board.

I agree with the above posters that this isn’t a good comparability.
When you pay money for the home, you may have about $2,000/month additional money move. Investing that additional money for 30 years @ 7% = ~ $2.4M.

That mentioned, I am nonetheless taking a mortgage. Not from a financial institution although.
Tax is a everlasting loss. One purpose I take advantage of loans after I purchase issues is that I do not wish to pay capital good points tax. I do not preserve vital money, as a result of that may be even worse from a tax viewpoint. Actually not sufficient to purchase a automotive or a home. If I wanted to give you 300k subsequent week, I’d use a brief box-spread after which begin accumulating money to cowl choices settlement, then roll something that’s left into one other brief box-spread. The brief box-spread would additionally generate a capital loss that I can use to offset capital good points or deduct regular revenue at 3k per yr.
