my condolences on your recent lost.there are a few ways you can do this, as mentioned above you can take a heloc on your primary residence which will give you a second mortgage, first mortgage payment wont be impacted. you can do cash out refinance which will give you one mortgage and payment. it will pay the old mortgage and give you money in your pocket to pay for the rehab.or you can do a renovation refinance which is similar to cash out refinance but we would contractor involved  as part of the refinancing and they are paid through the loan

Keep in touch with your lending partners for each one so you can understand whether you need departure residence income to qualify for the next or not.Finally, if you're investing with a Significant other, I recommend considering a "leapfrog" strategy where you buy one, then your partner buys the next, and so on.
