We just closed on an all cash purchase via an SMLLC of a SFR at auction (at a healthy discount to market due to distress) that we intend to use as an investment property, and we're looking for guidance on the best strategies for pulling as much equity out of the deal as possible to roll into another property (identified but yet to be purchased).  

Unfortunately it can be difficult to identify legitimate offerings both on the lending and wholesaling side but if you stick to larger more reputable groups you should be in good shape.As far as requirements, hard money / private money lenders will typically require you to put at least 10% down on the purchase, often more.

Identify the actual risks and take real action not legal finagling. 

If you need help identifying the best areas for STR in Atlanta, best operators, contractors, designers, etc, give me a shout.
