I am looking to buy again in the next six months.Here’s the situation:I own a home in San Diego, currently worth about $1.05 million once the ADU is built.I owe $680k on the mortgage at 4.25%, with monthly payments around $5,500.The property generates $7,500 in monthly income: $5,200 from the main house as a vacation rental and about $2,300 from the ADU as a mid-term rental.My broker is advising me to do a cash-out refinance and switch to a DSCR loan, then move the property into my LLC.I’m hesitant because current interest rates are around 8%, and I was originally considering a HELOC due to these high rates.Given the high rates, would you recommend sticking with the HELOC, or does the DSCR loan make more sense in the long run?

I would not recommend have a STR there and would find another location closer to the state parks that are nearby.
