Looking for some opinions on how much percentage to tap into for a heloc on my primary home. I'm looking to apply for a heloc through PenFed who offer up to 90% LTV. The house is valued around 325k and I owe 170k. The primary reason for the heloc would be to use about 10k for some debt consolidation, and the rest for my first investment property to BRRRR. I'm questioning if it's worth tapping into 90% at a higher interest rate (as low as 4.75% adj) or using a lesser LTV for the lower interest rate (as low at 3.75%) due to the fact I need to use it for debt consolidation as well.

Hey everyone. Super noob here looking to pursue my real estate investing career and have already started reading more into it. If it’s not too much trouble I’d like some advice on where to start with a home that needs severe rehab. The thing is it’s my fathers house and he can no longer afford the mortgage and wants me to take over to rehab it and put it up for rent. Another thing is that it’s the house I was raised in so the property has some sentimental value and I don’t want to lose it either. Besides the rehabilitation factor would it be wise to take over payments on the home? And would I be financially be burdening myself?
But Do it if you are thinking on the Real estate path, the opportunity you have is unique you will learn and hopefully keep the property as a great rental investment.
