You can certainly buy the property in the name of the LLC but you'll have to use a DSCR product which will have an interest rate that's 1% higher than conventional. 

Is there a combination of lending products and tactics you see that can make it possible to refinance after possibly 2 years and get out a large enough portion of funds to use towards the downpayment on another property?

Another way is to switch your product from 30 year fixed to a 5/1 ARM so now you're taking program or financial risk to arrive at a lower rate such that you can pass this FHA SS rule (5/1 ARM FHA has a lower rate by up to .50% than the 30 year product typically).

It depends on the lender but at a min they must follow TX SML or lending laws in the state in order to compliantly lend in TX, on whether choose to apply this guideline to all types of occupancies or transaction types (non owner investment, second homes/primary residences, etc)80-85LTV on rental properties is only on the purchase for fannie/freddie loans but on rate term refinances its max 80% and cash out max 75% for 1 unit and up to 70% for 2-4 unit cash out conventional.On HELOC's and rentals are up to 70-75% depending on the HELOC investor or product.Its good to distinguish between what the lenders are willing to do and for which product and also these loan products must abide my state law as well as an additiona layer of "overlays," on top as well (whichever is worst / most conservative).
