Cash-Out
The first mortgage is part of the decision.
If the current rate is strong, replacing it can be the more expensive way to use equity.
Why you need the cash
Remodel, consolidation, reserves, or another property change the structure.
HELOC alternative
Keeping the first mortgage is often the cleaner conversation.
Secured-debt risk
Cash-out and HELOC both put the home at risk. We say that plainly.

Cash-out refinance FAQ
Is cash-out better than a HELOC?
Neither is automatically better. Cash-out replaces the first mortgage. A HELOC can preserve it. Broadview compares both against your goal and rate.
Can I use cash-out for another property?
Sometimes that is the conversation — including investor paths. An advisor reviews occupancy, liens, and whether a different product belongs in the discussion.
