    If I was to refinance and give the new lender security over 3 properties worth approx 1 million dollars with a debt of $300,000, does that mean I could access $700,000 if this was set up as a line of credit.

    Cheers

    No.

    If the debt is $1mil, you would only get 80% of this = $800,000 less your current loan of $300,000. So that would be $500,000.

    There are also many factors that the lender will want to take into account such as your income (you will have be be able to afford the repayemnts on $800,000) and what you want the money for.

    It may be a good idea to consider spreading your debt with a couple of lenders,
