What’s Ahead For Mortgage Rates This Week – September 29th, 2025

Financing Multiple Properties with One Mortgage

Owning multiple properties can be a smart investment strategy, but managing separate loans for each property can be complex and expensive. A blanket mortgage offers a solution by allowing homeowners or investors to finance two or more properties under a single loan. This type of mortgage can simplify payments, streamline management, and often provide better rates than holding multiple individual mortgages. Understanding how a blanket mortgage works and when it makes sense can help you maximize your real estate investments efficiently.

A cash-out refinance can be a powerful tool for homeowners who want to leverage the equity in their home, but it is important to approach it strategically. This type of refinance replaces your existing mortgage with a new, larger loan, giving you the difference in cash. Whether you are planning home improvements, consolidating high-interest debt, or investing, using a cash-out refinance wisely can help you reach your financial goals without creating unnecessary risk.

Financing Mixed Use Properties: Live, Work, and Invest in One Place

Mixed use properties are becoming an attractive option for buyers who want to combine residential, commercial, and investment opportunities all in one place. These properties can provide unique benefits, such as generating rental income while also serving as a primary residence. However, financing a mixed-use property requires a different approach than financing a traditional single-family home, and understanding the process is key to making the right decision.
