    Many PCer talked about what happened if interest rate increase i.e 8%. I would like to get all your inputs in one thread here. Many people have already mentioned the following proactive approaches:

    1. Fixed the interest
    2. Reserve fund
    3. Sell non-performed IP - if the price drops at the time, we bear a loss.
    4. find extra income, work on 2nd job, drive a uber
    5. rent out garage or spare room
    6. what else?

    I believe that successful investor is the one that can overcome the hardship time.
