Hmm... I wonder if this applies to Helocs as well. Im about to open Helocs on 3 of my 6 investment properties to buy and flip other properties.
There will be a hard inquiry which will lower your score with each heloc. I'm getting my heloc refied because the adjustable rate went up so there was a hard inquiry. If you're using loans to buy the properties you could do a cash out finance to avoid opening another loan.
