Assuming your credit is decent, and you own the property outright or there is a decent amount of spread, a hard money lender may refinance 80% of original purchase price as cash out to assist with the funds required to finish rehab.

My question is can I now get a heloc on the mobile home at 90% LTV and pull 27k out to put down on the original live in flip property ??
