Best way to fund my 2nd property

So I am a little over my head currently on the funding of my 2nd rental property.  I have the funds for the down payment (20%) on a conventional loan, but do not have enough for the rehab.  Here are the details:

Purchase Price: $70,000

Rehab: $10,000

I initially thought I should use (1) loan to fund the purchase price and the rehab, but my lender recommended me to use a conventional loan for the purchase price and take out a personal line of credit through them to cover the rehab.  I am very confused on how this would go.  I am assuming I would need to refinance after 6 months to get money back out in order to pay back the personal line of credit.  I would definitely appreciate any insight on this or advice on how to go about getting this deal wrapped up.

Thanks for the feedback. The seller is extremely motivated and needs to sell soon so I am buying well below what it is worth. The ARV will be around $125,000-$135,000 judging by the other comps.
