Hi Jose,
Great question! Using a HELOC for investment purposes, such as funding a down payment on an investment property, might be viewed differently by lenders. This is because investment properties carry more risk than a primary residence. Lenders might be concerned about your ability to manage both your primary residence and the investment property, especially if you're using debt to fund the investment.
We specialize in providing loans for rental properties and HELOCs. Please feel free to reach out if you have a specific property in mind.
Thanks,

Hi Donald
Expanding your real estate portfolio and refinancing your rentals into an LLC is a strategic move that can offer benefits. Here's a potential approach that might align with your plans:
- Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) Loans: As you're venturing into real estate investing and considering financing options, exploring DSCR loans could be advantageous. These loans focus on the property's ability to generate sufficient cash flow to cover the debt payments, rather than solely relying on your personal income. This can be especially beneficial when you're looking to scale your portfolio while managing your own personal finances
. - Cash-Out Refinancing: Refinancing your existing properties and pulling out equity to invest in additional rentals is a smart strategy. Cash-out refinancing allows you to leverage the equity you've built to access funds for new investments. This can provide the capital you need to seize promising opportunities and grow your portfolio.
Please feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss further. I can help look at a specific property with you if you would like.
Thanks,
