HELOC & Strategy

Dolev Shemesh
Posted

Hello, 

I'm in a process of selling some portion of my residential real estate portfolio to fund a new commercial opportunity. The Plan is to come up with $400k for the down payment and for that I'll need to sell about 3 of my rentals. 2 of them are single family with a ton of upside, so I don't foresee any issues selling them. The third one is a condo that I'm having a hard time selling atm. 

Since this is an all or nothing deal, the challenge is to find buyers for all three properties at the same time. I also have a dead line with the seller of the commercial property. I currently have 2 pending offers on the first 2 properties but no inquiries as of yet on the third one, which lead me to my question: Should I go with a HELOC? And if so, does anyone know a good lender that does HELOC on investment property? My measurements should checks out fine (credit, Income/Debt ratio, etc.).

Thank you for all those who could offer any assistance.

If you decide to move forward with the HELOC on the investment property, please note that it can be challenging to get a HELOC on an investment property. Being an investor and lender myself, I have networked with many local banks and found one bank that is able to do investment HELOCs. Shoot me a DM if you decide to do the investment HELOC route.
