In this episode, I sit down with Mark Willis, a Certified Financial Planner and owner of Lake Growth Financial Services. Mark shares practical strategies for maintaining financial stability, avoiding over-leveraging, and how the “Bank on Yourself” strategy—using whole life insurance for liquidity—offers a reliable, flexible approach for real estate investors to grow wealth without relying on volatile markets or risky loans.
In this episode, you'll learn:
✔️ Why high-interest rates and rising HELOC payments are creating challenges for real estate investors—and how to navigate them
✔️ The importance of liquidity and how it can make or break a deal in today’s lending environment
✔️ How the “Bank on Yourself” strategy can provide a stable, tax-advantaged source of capital for long-term growth
