Can you use your house as collateral to buy another house?
Can you use your house as collateral to buy another house?
We have a rental house valued at $175,000. We owe $102,000. Can we use this house as collateral to buy another house or is that done any more? We were told we could get an equity loan using that house but I don't want to do that.

You'd need a permission from your first lender before you could use the same house to use it as collateral for another loan.

No the only way to use that home is to refi it and get some cash to use as a down payment on the new home
a mortgage uses the home it is attached to as the collaroral so there is no way to use one for a second
Good Luck
