Does anyone know of lender that can do HELOC's for rental properties. I've got strong equity positions with a few different rentals and would like to have access to additional cash, but every lender I've spoken with so far can only do HELOC's for primary residences. A cash-out refi would be the back-up plan, but I'd really prefer to not go that route if I can secure a HELOC instead.

@Peter Stur - I just got a HELOC on one of my properties in Denver. I went through Vectra Bank. If you need an intro, let me know! Happy to provide one.
@Peter Stur I'm very interested in doing the same. I have read in a couple of form's regarding local banks as well as Penfed doing HELOC for rental properties. I haven't had luck finding local bank one yet (tbh, I haven't looked too much either.) I'm currently in contact with Penfed so keeping finger crossed.

@Peter Stur Not sure where you are located, but I've found that smaller local banks are the best when it comes to HELOCs on investment properties. I have 3 HELOCs on three different properties using 70 LTV. It's a great option to have! I would reach out to some of the smaller more relationship-based banks in your area and see what options they might have.
Thank you Jennifer. I am located in the Denver area and already tried a few local banks & credit unions with no luck so far. If you know any Colorado banks that can do this please let me know and I'll definitely give them a call.

Hey Peter,
I just went through this exercise for my primary, and I googled credit unions in CO and just went down the list. I know most offer it for primary's but I specifically remember talking about investment properties as well. If I am not mistaken it might have been Bellco CU. Its been about a month now and I must have called 50 different CU's so I'm not entirely sure but it is at least a place to start.

@Peter Stur
I'm in denver and was just researching this as well. Bank of the West will do a HELOC on a rental property at 70% LTV. Unfortunately, I need a few more thousand to pay down on my mortgage before I can qualify. Message me and I'll give you my contact at Bank of the West.

I have used Pentagon Federal Credit Union for up to 80% LTV on rental properties. My property was in Oregon. They are a national bank, so most states should be available.
For Texas or Colorado, check out Security Service Federal Credit Union. I have not done rental properties with them, but have done 100% LTV on primary residences through them.

@Peter Stur FirstBank can do HELOCs on investment properties in CO, and AZ. Typically we will go to 75% LTV. Let me know if I can answer any questions for you.
Any suggestions for a Nevada Property? I have a Residence with a rental guest house, so I am having trouble finding HELOC options because they consider it multifamily. 2 Single family residences on one lot.
