Kyle, you can certainly find plenty of lenders who are writing HELOCs or Lines of Credit (LOC) right now. 

I've made tons of mistakes (thankfully haven't lost money), and plenty of bad decisions.

I don't want to discourage you, there are plenty of deals in older properties, but be sure to do your research.

Plenty have them and will state that your market is larger because it consists of renters that do and do not take pets with them on vacation vs a no pets cabin which has a smaller market.  

That amount of capital is plenty to house hack a duplex using fha to Put 3.5% down.

Since it’s your first time trying the BRRRR strategy, and things can go sideways even for experienced investors, it’s a good idea to have plenty of reserves. 

@David Marasow yeah I'm aware of all of that but you can find plenty of cities without rent control, the 5 year CO is 3 units and up and plenty of people still find ways to invest here.  

I'm sure there are plenty of people out there with more experience in this than I though. 

But then again I’ve bought plenty of properties with every penny I owned.

Puh-leeze, if you're relying on a degree to give you gravitas, you'll never have it.Know plenty of guys without college degrees and pretty good portfolios.I'd focus on raising money and learning to ask the right questions.
