Ryan Kuss Sell, Heloc, or cash out refinance?
4 November 2025 | 5 replies
But if your current interest rate is low, you might consider a second-position HELOC just for the renovation/down payment money — especially if you plan to refinance later when rates drop.If you sell instead, it’s simple — no debt juggling — but you’ll lose the chance to hang on to a property that could cash flow and appreciate long term.Here’s my quick example:Say your house is worth $300K and you owe $150K — that’s $150K equity.Sell: maybe walk away with $135K after closing.Cash-out refi to 75% LTV: new loan about $225K, gives you roughly $75K cash out after payoff and fees — enough to update your current place and put down 10–15% on the next one.If your current home rents well after the upgrade, that’s the smarter long game.If not, selling might be cleaner — take the win, roll it forward, and buy the bigger place plus a rental later when you’re not juggling two moves and four kids.You’re thinking like an investor already, though — run both versions in a simple spreadsheet and see which one gets you closer to your cash flow or portfolio goal; Ryan, I really hope this helps you a bit, I sent you a DM on BP... it's one of the reasons I do this, I hope you can assist.
