Call around to banks and credit unions and ask them what the minimum property value they will lend on and whether they do blanket loans, and what their seasoning period is--and anything else you may need to ask regarding your own qualifications. 

Another tactic is to eliminate the deferred balance over a four-year period at 25% per year but only if the borrower maintains and on-time payment schedule.

So properties that haven't been fully flipped, but that have been updated enough to rent and I ask the seller to address all structural, safety and mechanical repairs that come up in the inspection period!

Extract your capital and do a 1031 exchange into a MFR that can generate better returns.Some notes about your analysis:Since you already own the property you'll be able to refi pretty quickly, but in a typical BRRRR you should expect at least a 6-month seasoning period before a lender will refi based on a new appraisal.You're missing the following expenses:CapEx, should be around 15% when combined w/ RepairsManagement (10%) always include this even if you plan to self-manage at firstVacancy (8%)These additional expenses make you cash flow negative, even at 60% LTV, which is why I recommend selling this property.

I have actually seen your comments in many other threads regarding marketing yourself and avoiding the premiums of MLS deals.I periodically do a SWOT analysis on myself/my life.
