My wife and I currently have an investment property in the Elk Grove area with 140k in equity and a home in North Oak Park with 90k ish in equity that we're currently airbnb'ing but would prefer to not have to go through the hassle of refi or pulling cash out with a traditional bank/credit union.Both have credit scores in the high 700's, low 800's and debt to income ratio of about 25% with a potential of being closer to 10%-15% if my wife finds out she passed the CA Bar this upcoming Friday!
