Some of the help offered here is accurate and some of the help offered is a bit offFor most cash out refinance loans on investment properties the Max leverage offered is 75% LTV (You may find 80% but that really isn't industry standard) Which at a 250k "As is" value your max loan amount would be $187,500.00 If you purchased the property for 165k and renovated it for 30k you are all in for 195k Since I am assuming the property is owned free and clear the $187,500 (minus closing costs let's call it 5% of the loan amount) can be used to pay down your debt.
