The issue that I'm facing now is whether I want to pull it out against one of my rentals or on my primary.I have found a bank that will allow me to borrow as a second lien on rentals but their rates are higher than what I could get when just doing it against my primary.What I'm most worried about is what happens in a worst case scenario, should something drastic happen in the market.From what I understand, using the money against a rental doesn't necessarily provide much more of a safety blanket in case things hit the fan because if, somehow, the HELOC lender can't recover their money, you'll get sued anyways.
