Heloc for LLC---Read to see who is doing it!!

I already have my 1st investment property under an LLC owned by me and my wife, the property was purchased cash a few months ago. Is fully rehabbed and rented now with a nice cash flow.

My bank (BBT) initially told us months ago they'll be able to give us an HELOC for an LLC, however once we went this week to actually do it, now they say they only can do it under our personal property , they wont do one for an investment property under an LLC.

Bummer...after asking a few banks with no luck.....more negative karma...then I went today to Wells Fargo ( thanks BP for the tip!!) and spoke with a Business Banking Specialist , and they say YES we do it.....bring your business here! It will have to have a personal guarantee , but we do it!!! so if you need one reach out to Wells Fargo ( no, I am not a robot writing and ad for them) .

Will be bringing ALL the paperwork needed ( just my two last income taxes) at the end of this week to apply for the loan. Doesn't get any easier...tune in , I will be updating soon

@Sergio B. - there was no talk of appraisal cost, because on a HELOC the bank will cover it. They make up for it with pre-payment penalties, and interest off of you during your draw period. They could possibly only do a "drive-by" and just use recent solds in your neighborhood, being a SFH.

Thank you for the updates! I am currently working on an owner/occ HELOC with BMO Harris, and in the middle of this process your outlining, but on the personal side. Glad I never put any property into LLC's yet, for this reason alone!

@Samson Kay - someone else can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe because it is a SFH its only based on market value, not income. That would only come into play with MF/commercial loans I believe.
