How the Heck Are You Doing 5-10 BRRRRs Per Year?!

BRRRR works, no doubt. I've completed two but am now stuck waiting three months until I can cash-out refi on my third. So here's my question-- how the heck are all these investors doing it-- BRRRR-ing 5-10 properties per year?!

Since Fannie Mae's seasoning requirement is six-months for a cash-out refi, these investors would need a LOT of capital to continue to acquire properties while they wait for refi funds. For investors like me, who only have the capital to purchase + reno one property at a time, that limits me to two BRRRRs per year (if I do it perfectly). I'm currently looking for additional funding at local banks and credit unions, but with so much money tied up in the current BRRRR, my DTI ratio and credit score have taken a real hit.

SOOOO-- Brilliant investors out there in BP Land-- how are you doing it-- funding multiple BRRRRs simultaneously?! Are you relying on partnerships or, if you're a solo investor like me, how have you built-up your property acquisition fund? Are you using some combination of hard money / HELOCs / PLOCs / credit cards / family & friends / partnerships / flip profits?

Many thanks in advance!
