Alternatively, does anyone know of a loan originator who can help me create my own friendly line of credit from one of my LLCs and record the liens?

My second question was- Does it have to be one-for-one property or can it be one-for-two properties totaling 2M and more? 

I'm doing a cash out DSCR refi so I still get some of my capital back and can take advantage of cash flow/depreciation and all the other benefits of holding. 

All of my applications are coming back squeaky clean. 

Quote from @Chris Williams: For everyone who has used a credit partner on a deal before how was your experience? 

that's a simple pitch - you say your name is Shane, you're a real estate investor, and you'd like to buy their property. 

Since the place isn't in tip-top shape, you might have some room to negotiate the price down or ask for seller concessions.Partnering with another investor is a solid movee; two heads are better than one, right?

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

Maybe you are close to a black hole and have encountered a time dilation issue?
