As a real estate investor, I prefer borrowing against my cash values.

Let’s break down the pros and cons of each option (not exhaustive):

Borrowing:

Pros:

  • Flexibility
  • Skip underwriting
  • Policy growth continues
  • Avoid taxes or penalties

Cons:

  • Lower death benefit
  • Compounding loan interest

Withdrawing:

Pros:

  • Interest-free
  • No repayment issues

Cons:

  • Permanent decision
  • Slower policy growth
  • Potential tax implications
  • Decreased death benefit

The best choice between borrow vs. withdraw depends on your unique situation.
