How it works

Keep your first mortgage. Unlock the equity.

If you have a low-rate first mortgage and real equity, you don't have to refinance to reach it. When the lien structure allows, the HELOC sits behind your existing mortgage. The approved amount is generally fully funded at closing, and principal you pay down may become available to draw again.

  • Structure

  • Fully amortizing, mortgage-style payments; not an interest-only line
  • Fixed rate, with variable rate where eligible (not available in CO, DC, IL, MA, MS, NY, OK, SC, TX, VA, VT, WI, WV or WY)
  • Each redraw may be priced at the then-current rate
  • Pricing depends on credit, combined loan-to-value, amount, term, property, occupancy, lien position and state
  • Common business uses

  • Working capital, payroll and operating expenses
  • Expansion, hiring, inventory or equipment
  • Starting, buying or franchising a business
  • Consolidating or refinancing business debt
  • Real estate investment, reserves and other commercial uses
Business purpose only. The collateral is residential, but the money must be used for a legitimate business purpose; this is not consumer financing. The line reports as a revolving account on your personal credit, not only your business credit.
Requirements

What lenders look at

These are general guidelines. Your actual amount and terms are set by the application and underwriting.

  • Credit & income

  • Primary residence: tiers may extend down to 600 FICO in limited scenarios
  • Second home or investment: generally 680+
  • Requests over $400K: usually stronger credit (often 760+)
  • Debt-to-income generally below 50% after the new line; some scenarios 45%
  • Income is verified through linked bank, asset or payroll accounts, or tax information
  • Equity & property

  • Primary residence: up to about 85% combined loan-to-value (CLTV) in eligible stronger-credit scenarios
  • Investment property: generally up to ~80% CLTV in 1st lien, ~70% in 2nd lien
  • Owned at least 90 days before closing
  • Valuation: automated valuation or desktop evaluation; full appraisal over $400K
  • Texas minimum line: $35,000
ScenarioGeneral guideline
Owner-occupied, 1st lienUp to about 85% CLTV in eligible stronger-credit scenarios
Owner-occupied, 2nd lienScales with credit; many standard tiers around 75–80% CLTV
Owner-occupied, 3rd lienLimited scenarios, about 70% CLTV and smaller line amounts
Investment property, 1st lienGenerally up to about 80% CLTV
Investment property, 2nd lienGenerally about 70% CLTV maximum

Estimated CLTV = (existing liens + requested HELOC) ÷ property value. Example: a $600,000 home with a $300,000 mortgage and a $150,000 HELOC is at 75% CLTV.

Questions

Business-purpose HELOC FAQs

Is this a real HELOC?

Yes. It is a standalone line of credit secured by eligible residential real estate. The approved amount is generally fully drawn at closing, and principal you repay may become available to draw again during the draw period.

Do I have to refinance my first mortgage?

Not necessarily. Where the lien structure allows, the HELOC can sit behind your existing first mortgage, so you can keep a low-rate first loan in place.

Can I use my primary residence?

Potentially, yes, as long as the money is used for a legitimate business purpose and the property and borrower meet program requirements.

Can I use a rental or investment property?

Potentially, yes. Eligible non-owner-occupied properties can qualify, generally with 680+ credit and more conservative loan-to-value limits.

Can I borrow $750,000?

$750,000 is the program maximum for qualifying applicants, not a guaranteed amount. Requests above $400,000 get additional review and require a full appraisal.

Is there a credit check?

Yes. Credit is part of underwriting. The initial eligibility step may use a soft inquiry, with a hard inquiry later if you move forward.

Do you verify income?

Yes. This is not a no-income-verification or DSCR loan. Income can be verified digitally through linked bank, asset or payroll accounts or tax information, and the amount is based on your debt-to-income ratio.

Does it report on my business credit?

No. It reports as a revolving line on your personal credit, even though the funds are used for business.

Is there an appraisal?

Not always. An automated valuation may be used; some files need a desktop evaluation, and loans over $400,000 require a full appraisal.

Can I pay it off early?

Yes. Current program guidance has no standard prepayment penalty.

What rate will I get?

Your rate depends on credit, combined loan-to-value, amount, term, property, occupancy, lien position, state and market conditions. Complete the application to see your actual offer.

How fast can it fund?

Qualifying files may fund in as few as several business days. Timing depends on state, title, valuation and underwriting, and is not guaranteed.

Can I finance more than one property?

Yes, with one application per property. Each property is reviewed separately for value, liens, occupancy and eligibility.

The Business-Purpose HELOC is offered through a third-party lending partner. Win-Win Capital Funding, LLC is an independent referral partner and may be compensated for applications submitted through this page. Win-Win Capital Funding does not make credit decisions. All loans are subject to credit approval, verified income, debt-to-income requirements, collateral review, title, valuation, state availability and other underwriting requirements. Program terms, rates, fees, CLTV, lien positions and eligibility may change without notice. Business-purpose use is required. Submitting an application is not a loan approval or commitment to lend. A hard credit inquiry may be required. Borrowing against real estate places the property at risk if payments are not made.
