@Todd TylerYes there are programs out there for investments like I have that lend 85% on investment properties depending on credit score with no MI but interest rates will be higher.

I Know there are only certain lenders that will lend to an LLC, but that's not what i'm looking for.

And with all this talk lately about equity and private lending, I’ve been taking steps to get a HELOC set up.

Stick with lending to unrelated 3rd parties.

I was helping my cousin purchase a property and his lender informed me that because I had written on the purchase contract that we were related that the investor fInancIng the loan wouldn’t lend to my cousin because it was a rule they had that there could not be any relationship between agent and principal.

The lender will follow their lending criteria and wont stray from it, as it is intended to keep them from accepting poor deals. 

He told me because I haven't owned it for 6 months he couldn't lend me the money(Fannie Mae rule???)

2) You said you want to be a part of syndication team.

Maybe group them all together in a business loan and find a syndication or two you'd like to join?

I used to do hard money lending but I'm not actively seeking these opportunities, at least for now.
