What is a DSCR second mortgage?

Can I access rental-property equity without refinancing my first mortgage?
Potentially. A qualifying DSCR second mortgage or HELOC may let an investor access rental-property equity without automatically paying off an attractive existing first mortgage.
Answers before an application
The questions investors ask before they move forward.
How is a DSCR HELOC different?
A HELOC is generally a revolving line that may allow eligible borrowers to draw, repay, and reuse available funds during the draw period. Program structures, rates, minimum draws, and repayment terms vary.
Why choose a second lien instead of cash-out refinancing?
A second lien may preserve the rate and terms of an existing first mortgage. The tradeoff is that second-lien pricing and combined-LTV limits can differ from a new first-mortgage cash-out refinance.
What can the funds be used for?
Subject to business-purpose program rules, proceeds may support renovations, reserves, another property acquisition, business needs, or other eligible investment uses.
