⚠️ The Opportunity Cost: That money is no longer invested. You miss out on potential market growth, which can cost you thousands in the long run.⚠️ The "Double Tax" Trap: You pay the loan back with after-tax dollars, and then you’ll be taxed again when you withdraw it in retirement.⚠️ The Job Change Risk: If you leave your job, many plans require you to pay the balance back in full very quickly—or it counts as a taxable distribution (plus a 10% penalty if you’re under 59½).

Check if your plan allows for a "Principal Residence Loan." These often have longer repayment terms (up to 15 years) than standard 403(b) loans.
