Newbie Question #2: can you execute a BRRRR with a HELOC or HEL?
Hi everyone,
Today I was exploring how to pull some cash out of the equity on my current residential property and came across two popular options: a home equity line of credit (HELOC) and a home equity loan (HEL). These seem to have some advantages over a cash-out refinance such as lower closing costs and, in the case of HELs, being able to borrow up to 95 percent of your home's value in some cases. My question today is twofold: 1) can you execute a BRRRR strategy using a HELOC or HEL as opposed to a cash-out refinance? and 2) what are the advantages and disadvantages of doing so?
