Midwest properties are easy to find that do that thankfully.This post was more about if there were other lenders with better local rates, rather than if I should go with this one.

If you are looking at a deal that has a Realtor, builder aan Property manage all involved in the deal makes a deal very easy for a first time investor to navigate.Look for the market first and find an area that is growing in population and jobs.Let em know if I can help more.

Quote from @Mary Jay: Quote from @Jay Hurst: Quote from @Mary Jay: hi guys,so I have a lot of equity in one of my rentals but the interest rates are super low on it. so I dont want to do a cash out refinance on it because I dont want to lose the 3% interest rate on it.I want to get some cash out of it via Heloc or another vehicle,  so I could buy another rental, but its not my primary, so I cant get a HELOC on it from lots of banks....I think PenFed does helocs on rentals, but because I have more than 5 rentals, I dont qualify for their HELOC loan.IS there a bank that would give a HELOC/cash on a rental?

Fees should be clearly stated in writing, easy to understand, and justifiable.
