In today’s episode, I dive into a question that may seem a bit counterintuitive: could debt actually be safer than equity? When it comes to real estate, we’re often taught to pursue ownership and build equity, but what if taking a debt position – being the lender instead of the owner – offers more security?
I share how banks view debt as a low-risk investment by ensuring they’re first in line to be repaid, a concept known as "priority in the capital stack." As I’ve seen in my experience, lenders often get paid before equity investors, particularly in challenging economic times. I cover how debt positions can yield stable returns with less risk compared to traditional equity investments, especially in uncertain markets.
