DSCR loan uses
This maybe a silly question but I feel you got to put yourself out there and not be afraid to ask questions and admit your limitations. I'm new to real estate(just started renting out my rental property last fall). I understand real estate to be capital intensive. However, I'm looking at creative ways to produce cash flow with little to no cash down. The question is:
I have >$100,000 of equity in my (1st SFH) rental property. I currently live in my primary residence (2nd SFH). Will a DSCR lender give me a home equity loan from my (1st SFH) rental property, so that I can cover the down payment + closing costs to assume the 2.75% interest rate on a (3rd SFH) property I would move into immediately? As I would have to move in at least for a year to assume that rate. I would then just rent out my current (2nd SFH). The goal would be to capture that interest rate and keep it for the next 25 years so that I can cash flow well, if I move again and rent it out. And then payoff the home equity loan about less than $60,000 within 2-3 years.
Thx.

DSCR Loans are going to be strictly business-purpose 1st lien loans - so something like this with a closed end second or HELOC is going to be a different product entirely. Your situation is probably better for seeking out "Non-QM Lenders" or potentially other "Creative Financing" options
