The 70% rule is reserved for talking points by the guy on stage talking to an audience who they’re trying to sell a coaching program to   It’s a get excited number not a do a deal number   The equation is: maximum of 65% of AS IS value.  

I’d rather not sell my primary or 1031 the rental if possible.

To access your home equity without selling, you can explore options like a home equity loan, a line of credit (HELOC), or a cash-out refinance.

I can only think that this grows as we move into the typical buy/sell season.I assume that your buyer funnel is full, and a lot of people have the want to buy with a constraint or two (rate mostly) of some sorts and you're working with them to execute their purchase at the right time while working around their constraint.

Sellers cannot sell so they convert them to rentals.

If I got a home equity loan for Property 1 and used the proceeds as downpayment for Property 2 and then got a 2nd loan for the remaining 75% purchase price for Property 2, when I sell Property 2, can I use the Property 1 loan as part of the cost basis for computing Property 2 capital gains?
