I would get on the phone with a local lender through a local bank. 

My phone number is in my signature here on BP.

I am an engineer who works out of his basement everyday and rarely is on the phone.

Would love any leads to help me solve this problem even if it means making some phone calls.

Try calling the PM from a different phone number and also try the number on rental listings (if it is different from their main number).

I'll hit the phones!

Is it possible to have a phone conversation? 

Call around and talk to a few people I'm pretty sure you will find someone who will make the time for you who can tell you pretty much on the phone if you could qualify and ballpark for how much. 

Great cell reception.  3 miles away from our existing plantation and house.
