HELOC vs VA Cash Out Refinance

[Reden Dionisio]

I'm looking to use creative financing towards my down payment on a STR. Thinking of either HELOC or Cash Out Refinance. What would be best strategy to pull the financing from my primary residence? I've already used a VA IRRRL on the house.

Also, does it matter if a lender eventually sells the loan if I go with the cash out refinance?
