Yes for sure - you should definitely check out hard money loans to assist with the purchase and then "DSCR Loans" for the cash-out refinance (DSCR Loans are made particularly for investors like you - no DTI or W2 considered at all)Published an article last year on BP on this exact topic (BRRRR method financing options) hope it helps!

I just started a post asking this same question:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/50/topics/351567-purchasing-real-estate-with-credit-cards 

About 10 episodes ago, BP had a podcast on this topic. 

Just saying some times it’s best for people to avoid the bragging especially on certain topics.

If you don't, the risks could be (significantly) higher.I've been investing overseas with investors since 2017 before it was as fashionble as it is today and shared my experience in the forums by replying to hundreds of posts on the topic so feel free to check those out.
