HELOC: Local Bank of Investment Location OR Local Bank of Primary

[Janel Briones]

What are the pros and cons of getting a HELOC, at a bank, in the local area of an OOS investment property? Or, getting a HELOC through a local bank, in your primary residence location?

[Kerry Baird]

You are ideally finding a small local, lender to the property you are securing, with some larger lending exceptions..HELOCs on owner occupant houses are much easier to find than those on investment properties. You could get one on each, if you chose. TD Bank, US Bank and PenFed work on both owner occupant and investor properties.
I called every single lender in my county, and asked, based upon my FICO that I pulled myself. I didn’t want a bunch of inquiries.

I made a list, and have kept adding to it. This is the most recent iteration:

I've gleaned these lenders from the kind people on BP. I have used PenFed and TD Bank for HELOCs on investment property. Post back if you find another lender who serves you well, and I will add them to my list and pay it forward. These were all sourced pre-CV19, so eat the fish and spit out the bones.
