Also does anyone know of any private investors in the Dallas area?

My lender seems a little iffyy, I'm not sure if how I describe my intended use of the property will influence if they give me a loan. 

I financed this property with a hard money lender How did you add value to the deal?

I just sent you detailed reply to your private message.

I would recommend getting in contact with a few lenders to compare:Securing a Mortgage:Down Payment: With $80K saved, you’re in a strong position for a down payment. 

Has anyone used crowd funding or perhaps a private equity reit to fund a deal in the 2 million dollar range and if so how did you set it up and make it attractive to investors while keeping it profitable on the back end to actually run and maintain the property correctly? 

@Joe Villeneuve I come from the "professional shops", the Institutional Private Equity and REIT industry, that's exactly how it's done when investments are evaluated, your Financials do not show any profit until all of your initially invested cash has been repaid by the Asset via Monthly, Quarterly, Annually distributions, or at the closing of Sale.

To better explain what I'm trying to say, let me give some examples:One investor might have his “buying artillery” or “buying depth” (still looking for a term to describe what I'm saying) as;1. having a private lender and,2.

You can always lock your bedroom doors when you leave if you want to keep your bedroom space private.
