Best HELOC lenders for rentals?

[Mustafa Mo]

I have built an equity on a TH and I want to use my equity to purchase investment properties? As I have read, the HELOC is the way to go. Here are few questions:

1) what are the best HELOC lenders for rentals?

2 can I get a fixed rate? What would be really competitive nowadays?

3) any other recommendations for using my equity for rental investment properties?

Thanks
