I am a seasoned solutions provider as a network /security engineer for over 20 years.  

Like with any legal issue, the answer is that it depends on far more information than any one person on the internet has access to; including a state's individual treatment of personal liability, the financial structure of the individual or proposed business, and a whole host of other factors.If your chief concern is asset protection, stop taking advice from strangers online.

@Matt Fisher I train people to buy cash or terms so I want the word "solutions" in the name because it suggests there is a problem.

I said that half in jest but my point is that is a possible solution that most wouldn't think of.

The portion of the property used as your primary residence will qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 121 and the portion of your property used as a rental property will qualify for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031. 

Have traditional lender lined up but you usually have to wait 6 months for cash out talk with your local lenders for solutions or partner with a family member as a last resort

So if a solution is to be made likely it is in the middle somewhere where you both have an acceptable amount of risk to move forward.I would vet your business idea as well being a landlord. 

My solution was to leave my second vehicle in the driveway, and plug in a radio and light on a wall timer.

We got started by attending a schooling on non-performing notes and are constantly continuing our education to learn more creative solutions to maximize our profits.

Once you've plodded your way through them, you are much more likely to be able to find all the legally allowed creative solutions.
