Don't do it, for two reasons:
1) Real estate is not an investment, it is a place to live. (Unless of course you are very wealthy, don't have to borrow to incur in debt, and can afford to have an illiquid asset as a small percentage of your total net worth).
2) When interest rates go back up, the cost of money is going to be higher and it is very possible real estate prices will go down because buyers will not be able to afford as much real estate as today.
