If it's not a good investment property the numbers will tell you.Jaron,We brought the present home in 2012 as our first home.Its a new construction.I did run the numbers on the existing home.As I mentioned we paid 212k in 2012.Took an FHA and refinanced to conventional a few yrs later.(3.5% for 30 yrs Balance on mortgage 160k).Mortgage runs to 1200/month.Our property can be rented out as is for 2000/month.Its a 4 bed 3 bath and rents in our community start with 2000 range for our sq footage.I want to pay off this house asap in next 5-6 yrs and free up money to invest in another house.The houses in our community are in 450k+ range.Hubby is preapproved is not the reason for another house.The other house is right opposite to our community  and is a 5 min walk from our house.So its not a big move.Except that I want to move closer to our kids friends.Our lender metioned Heloc maybe a good choice for further investments.I want to explore Home Equity Loan route to be safer.I am still a layman in Heloc route and dont want to burn fingers.Any advice.P.S.What is COC?
