I don't know how to make this happen but the numbers work well, so I'm looking for creative advice/equity partners/private money/hard money  for how to make this happen, and then when my business sells I can pay back the loan and find financing at that point to continue the rehab.

. $300k loan needs to show $15k liquid assets, and draws typically require you to pay contractors and obtain a lien release before you can be reimbursed for the money you paid contractor.While I know there are a lot of people who use low money down loans to get started, it is risky.  

Hope it goes well!
