I would recommend Marquette Bank.

Had the money for down payment and repairs but with lack of credit history I couldn’t get approved by the bank so I had to get creative.

If the Seller agrees to reduce the price to $210k, this will be a short sale and the bank may have a say or two about it. 

I gave the bank $2k as collateral, and got 2 lines of credit for a year.

If you don't plan on selling anytime soon and don't need to worry about cashing out, so long as you have renters paying rent, the bank will be happy your mortgage is paid.  

Initially I was going too cash out on a Sheriff sale property and refinance my current duplex for to find the second properties rehab.Although it’s not a bad idea, I don’t wanna bank on the equity in my home to be enough.

Talk to your bank mortgage dept.

I checked with my bank and I should be able to get a new $560K HELOC on my primary home.

These programs are much more lenient and allow Alternative income streams to qualify such as: Liquid Asset calculations for incomeBusiness Bank DepositsPersonal Bank Deposits Expected Income New Employment income1099 IncomeCommissions & BonusesAccount ReceivablesNote Receivables Contracts for future incomeNew Rental IncomeExpected Rental Income from property planning to rentConsiderably different calculations on Tax returns 

Problem is banks do not like tip income and also I have many expenses for the business so it doesn't show much profit, even though many of these assets (truck, commercial mower, etc) will be paid off over the next 1-3 years.
