Paid off investment home. Can I take a 1st mortgage on that property or must I go with a home equity loan?

Viper asked:


My brother and I need cash for a business venture and would like to take a loan out against an residential investment property that we co-own free and clear. Is our only option a Home Equity Loan? Ideally we would like to take advantage of the lower rates of a standard mortgage.

      Do either of you live in home? If not, can’t get HELOC, but can take out a first mortgage.

      Yes you can get a mortgage on an investment property assuming your credit is ok and income can handle the extra costs. I agree that rates are low right now and I’d highly suggest doing this rather than a heloc. Just go to a bank and ask, heck go to the one that used to have your mortgage - they’ll have a history with you.

      You’d want a cashout refinance, and then you’d take 100% of the loan proceeds, minus closing costs. Fixed mortgages have better rates than HELOCs, so a regular mortgage is the way to go.

      You can take out a traditional mortgage, no problem.
