What to Know About HELOC on Investment Property
Equity in a rental is money you may be able to put to work.
A home equity line of credit, or HELOC, lets you borrow against the equity in a property you own. Equity is the difference between what the property is worth and what you still owe. For an investor, that can mean using the equity in a rental to pay for repairs, to fund a down payment on the next purchase, or to keep cash in reserve. You are approved for a credit limit and draw from it as you need it.
Many banks only offer a HELOC on the home you live in, so options for a rental can be limited. Some lending partners do offer them on investment property. Terms, limits, and costs differ by lender, and many HELOCs have payments that can change over time. The property is the collateral, so missing payments could put it at risk.
Availability, eligibility, and terms vary by lender, property, and state. Nothing on this page is a commitment to lend or a rate quote.

Common Questions
Can I get a HELOC on a rental property?
Some lending partners offer them. Availability depends on the lender, the property, your qualifications, and the state. We can tell you what may be available.
Do I have to live in the property?
Many HELOCs are limited to a primary home. Some programs allow rental or investment property. We can tell you what may fit.
How is a HELOC different from a home equity loan on a rental?
A HELOC is a line of credit you draw from as needed. A home equity loan is a lump sum repaid on a set schedule.
HELOC or cash-out refinance on a rental property?
A HELOC is a line of credit and leaves your current mortgage in place. A cash-out refinance replaces your current mortgage with a new, larger one. The better fit depends on your current loan and your goals.
How do HELOC rates work?
Rates vary by lender, property, and borrower, and many HELOCs have rates that can change over time. We do not list rates here. Call for current options.
Is my property at risk?
A HELOC is secured by the property, so missing payments could put it at risk. Borrow only what you are confident you can repay.
