So after go back and forth with the seller to strike a deal that made sense for the both of us, I secured a buyer that was instantly ready to buy my contract and we just closed escrow 4/26/2019.

When I was less financially secure then I am now.

I have so much respect for those on this forum that help out and am so thankful from the knowledge I've gained from browsing over the years.As to my question, I am looking to secure a second lien position with a personal guarantee on a hard money loan in Pasadena, CA. 

You are all kinds of patient explaining to your 'professionals' as much as you have.As mentioned, there's no monetary value or gain for them knowing RI, unless you're stripping equity or selling to invest in securities.
