High DTI- have assets to use as collateral but can’t get loan

[Andre Alves]

I have been investing in RE for the past 3 years now. It’s been a great journey! However, I’m stuck now. My debt to income is high and I can’t get any new loans. I currently have 2 properties in Orlando Florida, free and clear , each worth 80k-90k. I would like to get some cash out and continue investing. Both properties are profitable, but no bank wants to put a mortgage on it due high DTI. I would really like to keep them. I already saw at least 3 opportunities to make a flip and make money, but got stuck on the financial part. Any suggestions?
