Hi Shakil, I'm a Realtor and Property Manager in Huntsville AL who specializes in working with investors!

Hey Zachary I think it's essential to look beyond mere interest rate differentials and focus on strategic benefits, particularly if scaling your portfolio is a long term goal.Key considerations:Pre-payment penalties: Determine if the HELOC has any penalties, impacting your flexibility payoff.Scaling strategy: Evaluate the scalability and limitations of each financing option.Advantage of HML: Allows scaling without hard credit pulls, and no pre-payment penalties.Holding costs: Factor in not just interest rate differences but also ancillary expenses as well as overall goals of scaling.Example scenario:Property purchase for $120,000 with $30,000 renovation.
