Has anyone approached a bank / financial institution to propose opening an UNSECURED line of credit solely for use to buy, rehab and either hold or flip?

I think an unsecured loan of this size would be difficult to come by and, if you found one, the terms would not be as favorable as a mortgage.

I have a decent size unsecured commercial line with a different lender with no deposit account.

This would all cut into my return and suck up unleveraged cash for an unknown time period.

Utilize the 401k, perhaps unsecured loans from a credit union to help you get going.And yes, find a smoking hot female real estate investor.

I have experience in negotiating unsecured debt.

Hi everyone,I have a private lender lined up who will be lending (unsecured) to me from their SDIRA (checkbook controlled IRA). 

Its an unsecured personal loan, you can use it any way you desire.

The fact Jon knows someone who is getting $50k is a good sign so perhaps Chase is putting some money on the streets via their unsecured lines.

He was able to work his magic and negotiate for me $90k in unsecured business credit at 0% for my second round of funding bring my total to about $140k; this is going to be a huge help in growing my real estate business.
