But, now laws are much stronger, identity much more difficult to hide.  

Anything not tied exclusively to the agent, once listed.

There's a nexus of factors tied to the LLC lending question worth noting.Typically we use a specific type of private business-purpose note that enables LLC lending.Other benefits of this note include: No Income Verification, No Credit Reporting, LLC Liability and Privacy protection, Unlimited Number of Loans, Far Less Documentation,... many obvious and non-obvious reasons savvy investors run this route.These notes are also competitive with FHA/VA/Conventional interest rates; however a 15-20% minimum down payment is required.Happy to help you cover the bases.

Once you have a steady cash flow and a better understanding of what goes into renovations, you’ll be in a stronger position to move into MTR or consider a fix-and-flip project.

Of course the co-signer should be significantly stronger in ALL areas as compared to the applicant...usually this is a parent or relative, and they should be well established, with ownership of real estate for years; long and stable employment; no, or very distant, criminal and traffic court records; well funded SAVINGS/IRA's or stock market accounts.

Seller has $405k tied up in the deal, 2nd lender has $95k tied up and you have $0.

LOC on business purpose doesn't really make sense from a lenders perspective.Think about it, you have to tie up funds and not earn a return until the borrower wants to use them.Time is money and if your lending money you want a return each day your money is out.I'd strongly recommend just going with a cash out refinance and avoid spinning wheels looking for a LOC. 

Tennessee’s no-state income tax policy can be a nice perk for long-term wealth building.Indianapolis Pros: Having real estate connections in Indy could give you a competitive advantage on deals, local market insights, and trusted contractors, which can be invaluable for a BRRRR strategy.Ultimately, your “competitive advantage” might be stronger where you already have boots on the ground. 

However, I suspect it's still tied to the furnace/boiler.

I am learning but am struggling to tie tools, etc, together to understand a deal.
