@Richard Cruz  The two main ways to pull equity out of your property are through a cash-out refi and a through a HELOC. 

We are currently using a heloc to fund the buying of rentals.   

@Daniel GrunewaldYou don’t need a heloc.

I’m strongly considering of going with Norada Real Estate Investments for my first investment property using my HELOC.

@Jennifer SmithI'm not an expert, especially with the LLC question, but I wonder if these options would be viable: 1) Take out a HELOC for the repairs?

Current Job Situation:- Full time 40 hrs a week employee - Part time real estate investor - Plan on moving to full time real estate 1st quarter 2020Finances:- I’ve saved my whole life so I landed to own 6 properties debt free- I have a HELOC out @5% for 180K on my primary residence that I used to purchase another investment property outright.

Instead of doing a refi on a 0% loan, why not look at a HELOC to get some additional funds.You could also ask to defer making payments for 6 month to the owner to get through the rehab.

Once we closed we applied for a HELOC with a bank that does not require an appraisal and used those funds to payoff the hard money.

I would get a HELOC on the home and use it to acquire more properties. 

We paid it off a couple of years ago and took out a HELOC last year with an 80K line.
