I am attempting to borrow money against my investment property that I’ve owned approximately 6 years.

If a prospective tenant passed the screening but refused to give the landlord a key during lease-signing (despite attempts to reach a mutual agreement), can the landlord still reject the applicant and start over?

I am not recommending this but it is part of our attempts to creatively finance. 

We're attempting to address the issue to see if there is anything that can be done with it.

My question is: should I ever attempt to bring on more people to scale faster and increase the overall cash flow faster?

The renovations moved slower than I thought, I think in large part because it was first attempt and the learning curve is steep but very achievable.

With anything in finance it is all about looking at the repayment schedule and attempting to use money efficiently. 

(My gut tells me this company is so nice and professional that there is nothing to worry about, but I am a newb, not an idiot, so these steps will be taken.)I have attempted to begin educating myself by reading books on private lending, etc, but I would be interested in connecting with someone, again, likely an attorney, who can help me avoid problems and walk me through the process for the first time.  

On top of that, the law in almost every state requires us to mitigate our damages and attempt to re-rent the property, so we can't even hold them responsible for the full balance of the lease.
