Hi RayRay,

The equity lender may not be ready to subordinate his loan for the refinance. You need to negotiate with him for that or you will have to convince the new lender to subordinate the new loan.

To anony,

You need to consult your tax adviser in this regard. He will be the best person to help you in this case.

Thanks

anony, when you obtain cash out from a refinance, it is absolutely not taxable income. it is a loan and you are liable to pay it back.

Post     Post subject: equity on investment properties

hi. i'm looking into buying a fixer as an investment property. Was wondering if I'd be able to take equity from a property that is NOT a primary residence. I would need some money after fixing it up so would I have to sell it or could i take some equity and then rent it out?

it's awfully difficult to get cash out on a refinance of an investment property - depending on the property type, you could be looking at 70% loan to value at best. it's understandable - people are more likely to bail out on an investment property than on their own home when times are tough (though i don't have stats on the current market and that occurrence). lenders are understandably more conservative, however, with all transactions on non-owner occupied properties.

Hi Guest,

I agree with what George has said in this regard. It would be quite difficult for you to qualify for a cash out refinance on an investment property.

I have first loan $ 320,000 and line of credit $ 355,000 which has been taken by my son 3 years ago and it is on his name. Now I am in process to modify my first loan. After modification of first I know that second going to be my biggest problem, I want to know what are my options about second.

As your son has taken the line of credit, you can ask him to negotiate with the lender and apply for a loan modification. Depending upon your son's financial situation, the second lender will let him know whether or not his loan will get modified.

OK Niicss, my son's financial situation is very bed. And lets assume that negotiation is not in favor to me. Can he do bankruptcy if value of the house Appraised appx. $420,000-$450,000 and first loan amount is $ 320,000 as I mention earlier, and second is $355,000.
Or if I won't be able to pay monthly payments for second only is there any alternatives in that situation.

Thanks

Your son can file Chapter 13 and get rid of the second loan with the help of lien stripping. As far as the first mortgage is concerned, he will get a repayment plan to pay it off.

Despite the world crisis, we can still purchase our own home with a flexible rate and low interest rate. There is still hope for a bright future.
