Hi, I'm looking for a lending institution that will do a HELOC or home-equity loan on a rental property (the property is 100% paid off currently).

@Raj G.First, to be eligible for a Solo 401k plan you must be self-employed or have a legitimate business with earned income and no full time employees (over 1,000 hours per year) except yourself and your spouse.If you wish to invest in real estate then you need self-directed Solo 401k, brokerage or major financial institutions will not help.

Question 2I was told my property (in Columbus Ohio) will need to "season" for 12 months before a loan can be granted based off of the appraised value instead of the purchase price.Is this normal and does anyone know of financial institution that will provide shorter "seasoning" periods?

This isn’t some rich lender down the street or some bIg name banking institution , this is your mother and you got to get her money back first before anything else .
