Currently utilizing two mortgages to avoid PMI. A mortgage for 518k and an interest only equity line for 50k.

I am in the process of selling and buying and am looking to secure financing for my new home. I pulled my credit and it appears as though the equity line is being calculated as regular debt, and not a mortgage. Ulitmatly bringing my credit score down (I think).

My question is, will mortgage lenders consider my equity line as regular debt? Or are they going to consider it a mortgage?

Well to the "real world" -- that how HELOCs have always been treated, e.g. analagous to credit cards. No big "secret".
