Millionaire Mindcast Buy a House with Bitcoin?! Crypto Mortgages are Here! | Wise Investor Segment
Matty A. dives into the world of crypto-backed mortgages, explaining how you can use Bitcoin or Ethereum as collateral to finance a home—without selling your crypto.
Why This Matters
Keep your crypto gains intact: Avoid selling and triggering capital gains taxes
Faster and easier transactions: Lenders like Milo, USDC.Homes, and Figure offer no-credit-check loans and quick funding
FHFA update: Regulators are now exploring crypto as a recognized asset for mortgage applicants at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
How Crypto Mortgages Work
Pledge crypto as collateral (often 100% of loan value or more)
Receive fiat funds for your purchase
Loan repayment in traditional currency — collateral returned when paid in full
Beware of margin calls — if crypto value drops, you may need more collateral
