@Nicole ShoafYou are correct and have equity locked up in those units, a good lender can give you options on HELOCs or other loan products that could help get some equity out without selling.

At the end of the day, they're usually buying the products from the same outlets that you can!

I sent him a list of my questions ahead of time which really seemed productive to me.

It's no different than anything else that people try to DIY: it can be done but beginner's mistakes will be made, the end product usually isn't as good as a professional would have done, and it usually takes longer and costs more. 

Then connect with some hard money lenders (you can find some here on BP as well as some who are typing this right now) and connect with them to understand their product type, what they like to lend on and requirements.Hard money broker is all numbers game of making relationships and helping those that are looking for financing, it starts out slow but if you get with a few good borrowers and lenders it can be pretty decent money to be made.As an example we paid six figures last year to HM brokers. 

But you are absolutely demonstrating your intent to hold for productive investment use.

I would suggest going to the find a lender tab here on bigger pockets to find a local lender who has the same products. 

I know Hunter is busy, but it seems like something more needs to be in place for people that have just onboarded, though maybe I'm just not being patient enough as I'm sure they onboarded a surge of people in conjunction with the really excellent production.
