Toby - getting your license for self representation of you're planning on doing a lot of deals is a good option.1) You have to hang your license with a broker unless you have a brokers license.

Hi All,I have a SF LTR that I’m self-managing on the passive side.

A&D has a 2nd position DSCR but not revolving - installment only.AO has a HELOC but self-employment documented for 2 years is required. 

You will need to roll over your retirement funds into a self-directed IRA account (funds would be lent from there and returned back there).

@Michael Lyons @Sara Finley I have to agree with Sara here, because all of the really good schools are getting so many applications these days they aren't accepting out of geography applications.

However, here are a few strategies to explore:Local Real Estate Investor Networks – Join local REI groups, meetups, or Facebook groups where private lenders may be open to funding primary residences under the right terms.Seller Financing – If the seller is open to it, you could negotiate a seller-financed deal where they act as the lender.Community Banks & Credit Unions – Smaller local banks may offer portfolio loans with flexible terms.Wealthy Individuals / Family Offices – High-net-worth individuals sometimes fund private deals, especially if they see strong equity and repayment potential.IRA or Self-Directed Retirement Accounts – Some investors lend money from their self-directed IRAs for real estate transactions.Since you’re willing to pay higher interest for a short-term solution, a contract for deed (land contract) might also be an option, where the seller keeps the title until you pay it off or refinance.Would you like me to connect you with any potential private lenders?

You will want to understand taxes and applicable laws.
