I didn't have any idea if I would ever be able to walk again and had to find a way to support my family.

Right now when I pull the money the properties will still cash flow but anything after this the rents will not not support keeping them cash flow wise.

I'm looking to get into wholesaling and move up to renting signal family home in the twin cities.I've found some wonderful information and been applying it to my real estate investment business.See you guys around the site and thanks for the support.

While I agree that best-case numbers almost always support partnering over lending, there is no assurance we would make money in a partnership or even come out whole or unscathed.

@Heather Alte - Well, I'm sorry you think you don't have anyone of like mind around you, but you now have a massive community of like minded people here on BiggerPockets to help and support you.Let us know what you need or how we can assist you and we'll be here to do our part.

However, you won't get many to help in future if you forget to express some gratitude, even for those with an agenda or those you disagree with.Having participated and supported a number of forums over the years, I encourage poster to "take the best and leave the rest."

Financing is not an option because we are retired so we don't have the income to support a loan.

This property is in the Metro Detroit area.Seemed like a no brainer until that last line :)You might find some people who are supportive of Detroit, but most won't even consider the city as a whole.

Wells Fargo advised that they are no longer doing these.Ideally I'd love to have the equity available to dip into it without having to go through closing each and every time that I want to add to the loan.This site is amazing and I can never repay everyone for all of their help/ support.
