Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency cannot be used as a down payment in a traditional mortgage (Conv, FHA, VA, USDA). 

It's not a traditional school building.

Our plan was to do the traditional house-hack, but things haven’t gone as planned.During some self-testing followed by professional testing, we discovered lead in several high-traffic areas of the home.

Are you sticking to traditional banks, exploring private lenders, partnerships, or maybe something creative like seller financing?

We buy, we can sell off market, or we can sell it traditionally.

One side is traditional rental and the other side I have furnished and have been renting as STR. 

I run sum numbers for you please see comments below before refinancing and post refinancing .If I were in your position, I would approach it as follows:Initial Investment Assumptions: Market Value: $360,000 Purchase Price: $360,000 Equity: $0,000Financial Breakdown: Hard Money Loan (LTV 100%): $360,000 Interest Rate: 10% (30-Year Amortization) Monthly Payment: $1,995Upfront Costs: Origination fee (1%): $3,600 Closing Costs (3%): $10,800 Renovation Costs: $10,000 2 Month of Carrying Costs During Renovation: $5,390Total Upfront Required: $29,790Total Capital InvestmentPurchased price $360,000 Upfront Costs $29,790Total: $389,790To make this investment work, you need to rent the whole property for at least $3,165/month, refinance it let say after one year with 5% interest with a traditional mortgage.Year One Rent: Monthly Rent Income: $3,165 Monthly Rent Losses during renovations (2 Months): -$6,330 (-$527/month distributed over 12 months) Total Rent Income: $31,650 per year => $ 2,638 per monthMonthly Expenses: Hard Money Loan Payment (10% Interest): $1,995 / per month interest only Property Tax (Assuming $3,000/year): $250 per month Property Insurance (Assumption): $100 per month Utilities (Hydro, Gas, Water): $292 per month Assuming 0% Vacancy first year Assuming 0 % Repairs & Maintenance first year because unit has been recently renovated Total Monthly Expenses: $2,637Monthly Net Cash Flow: $1Post-Renovation Refinancing Strategy:So far, we’ve purchased the property, completed renovations, and rented it out.Next, you can approach the bank for a refinance to consolidate your initial investment of $29,790 plus your 360k debt into a mortgage.

If you're trying to make money without ownership you might want to consider traditional wholesaling by finding discounted properties off-market and then selling to investors.

The whole scheme was buy a foreclosure, "sell" it back to someone that can't qualify for traditional financing with seller financing at a higher rate, once note is "performing" you can sell the note and make a lot of money. 

These strategies can allow you to acquire properties without traditional bank financing, which can be beneficial given your current DTI and income situation.
