Hi @Kofi Thompson

HELOCs on investment properties can be hard to come by. Is your property in your personal name or an LLC and what state is it located in? If you'd like to send me a message with more info, I'm happy to look into this for you.


 Hey I am in Mississippi and yes it's in my personal name. I actually lived there 15 years before buy a new home over a year ago. 


Okay, I think I have a HELOC option for you. Credit score over 700 would qualify you, We'd just have to make sure all the other numbers (property value, mortgage balance, LTV, etc) make sense.

I'm having the same problem. I have 775 credit scope and over 1mm in equity and got denied on my investment property. I'm going to keep at it till I find a bank or credit union that will unleash that money so I can put it to work. Seriously frustrating though. Anyone have any Ideas?

Happy to dig into this for you if you’d like to send me more information.

Not sure if you're looking for conventional or nonQM. I'm quoting mid 7s or so on conventional SFH investments with purchase prices around $250k, 75% LTV and 780+ FICOs. High 7s to low 8s on DSCR.

Absolutely considering Section 8.  I’ve been looking into that here in Orlando, but cost is prohibitive from an entry standpoint.  Have you taken advantage of Section 8?  Would love to connect one off and lick your brain and learn about your experience.


Yes we have - it's great having most of the rent guaranteed to hit your account around the 1st every month, but the tenants tend to come with their own set of challenges from my experience. Sorry I didn't reply sooner, I didn't get notified of a response on my comment. Feel free to reach out!

Hi Sunny, 

Cleveland is a very popular part of Ohio when it comes to investing. Are you looking for traditional financing or for an investment loan? Happy to chat if you’d like to send me a message.

If you're looking for traditional financing you should be okay, otherwise the investment loans (like DSCR) usually have a $75k+ minimum loan amount. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss.

I just got my heloc setup and probably going to brrrr some cheap houses but just wondering how to calculate the payments for the heloc with a 7.49 rate, i took out 20k and my monthly payments would be 300 a month is that right, they said something about 1.5 percent of outstanding balance is adding or something 

The way a HELOC is structured varies lender to lender so your best bet is to reach out to them and find out about yours. Could be interest only, could be a % of outstanding balance, etc. 
Its interest only, i thought all heloc is intrest only
Most of the time, but not always.

If your DTI is the problem, your options are to increase your income or decrease your debt. Easier said than done (especially because you're also in school), I know. There is a program for owner occupied properties that doesn't consider DTI, but you'll need a large down payment that varies based on your credit score. It's a higher risk for the lender so the requirements reflect that. Not sure if it would be a good fit for you or not based on the info from your post, but I'm happy to chat if you'd like to connect!
