I was thinking more of like either refinancing my current VA loan or getting a HELOC and using the equity I have to acquire rentals and potentially doing the BRRRR method to recoup my initial investment.

Instead, you could explore pulling equity out through a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance.

My husband and I plan to use the proceeds from our sale to purchase a larger business in a few years using an SBA loan.For those interested in exploring entrepreneurship through acquisition, I think laundromats are a great place to start.

It’s great to hear about your goals—wholesaling is a fantastic way to build capital and experience for rental properties and flips.I’d love to connect and explore how we might work together to grow our businesses.

Explore furnishing it as a medium term rental maybe. 

There are many who will argue my methods and that's fine, it's worked very well for me and has been extremely rewarding in ways that cannot be compensated monetarily. 

I’d be more than happy to hop on a call with you to discuss the different areas and explore how you might make it work.

Please share as I explore using them for my rentals.

Once you've figured that out, take a trip and explore the area a bit and make sure it's an area you're comfortable investing in. 

Alternatively, I could explore hard money lenders.
