The other question I have is...Should I do it like this or should I keep the original loan so I can keep lower mortgage payments and get to the equity through a HELOC?

Should I tap into my equity in the house in Lancaster and get HELOC or should I pay the downpayment for a house as cash?

HELOC or refi into a conventional mortgage for an investment property, which I am assuming will be similar to question 1 above?

HELOC on our primary residenceORCash Out refi on investment portfolio Our thoughts:The cash out will help our balance sheet and allow us to pay off short term debt, but will increase the debt to income ratio long term.

We took out a HELOC to do the construction ( $150,000) and our thought was that this would be a great property that could put us into the BRRR method.

We bought the condo without investment in mind (it would have a hard time cash flowing) and it’s hard to tell if it’s a worthwhile to hold it in hopes of long-term appreciation (seems like this is too speculative to be a good strategy).Regardless, I’m thinking that I’d like to take advantage of the appreciation gains – by having the house reappraised via either a cash-out refi, refi, or HELOC.

If I estimate $30k in rehab costs, how do I enter information into the calculator if I'm using a HELOC to fund the $30k rehab, OR alternatively, how would I enter it if I'm using cash to fund the rehab?
