My plan was to do a Home Equity Loan and the STR income will pay off loan in maybe 3 years. 

So keep that in mind when you get your loan. 

I have researched the different kinds of loans for this but I would love to speak with any lenders or other investors in this area.

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

Some could disagree as getting all cash and putting it in the stock market would yield a much higher return than the rate on a loan.2.

I have funds tied up in other projects at the moment but my inbox is FULL of solid deals.We are familiar with some companies that do this.Som will only do first position loans so in many instances you need to refinance out through them and it can get expensive if you ahve a low interest rate.

of course this is a correct description but lets talk a bout reality.very few loans for most investors will be non recourse unless they are very large loans but the average under 1mil loan 97% of the time will be full recourse unless the lender is not ready for prime time.

I had a response on a previous post this year about what the private lending restrictions will be here --> https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/22/topics/1174919-bough...Here's a re-post of that information though:------------------------------------I do have a DSCR lender who can assist with a limited recourse loan that will close in the name of a self-directed IRA.

Welcome to the world of bank loans!

Your bank today on the loan might have sold the loan to someone else, kept the loan and the bank was bought out by other bank, not loan as much on commercial real estate anymore, etc.
