What is the Intelligent Alternative?
It is the opportunity to finance your real estate with interest-only repayment while still retaining participation in your stock portfolio using an Intelligent Alternative HedgeLoan®.
John Shareholder wants to buy a new house. He needs cash for a down payment, but believes some good news is coming soon and doesn't want to liquidate his favorite stock position - now worth $150,000. The house costs $500,000 and he needs $100,000 for a down payment.
Solution: With a HedgeLoan, he receives up to 90% of the value of the stock on a limited recourse basis. If his favorite stock goes up, he can participate in the upside, and if it goes down, he can exercise his right to default on the loan (with no reporting to credit bureaus) and the collateral fully satisfies the loan obligation.
