How to get a HELOC (new business no proven income)

[Antoine Venghiattis]

Hey BP Community, 

I'm a new member (first post) and just getting started in real estate investing. 

I am interested in tapping into my home equity to invest in my first rental property,

I have approx 200k in equity in my house but I just started my own company in Aug '15 so I don't have a long history of proven income. I talked to a local Credit Union that I'm a member at and they require 2 years of income history for self employed members.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on lenders willing to lend to someone in my situation?

I'm also looking to use less than half my equity at $75k

Thanks!
