Eventually scaling to the point I can obtain five to six figures a month from properties will provide funding for said creative endeavors, such as a recording and animation studio with top notch equipment, eventually a conglomerate for a unrelated business.It is my sincere hope that my burning desire to learn, network with mentors and other professionals, and take the steps necessary to overcome fears in real estate investing to improve my quality of life and goals can be taken seriously, so I can eventually do the same for others.

If refinancing is tricky with your current bank, you might explore portfolio or private lenders who consider your full track record and rehabs, or a cash-out refi elsewhere to free up funds for the next project.

PE often wants scale, track record, and systems; many first deals pencil faster with private lenders or JV partners you already know.

This seems impossibly low to me and everyone I've talked to about it, including my agent and another appraiser (off the record) agrees.

It is public record.

A record low. 

Ken, your posts sound like a broken record.

The key will be building confidence with potential investors by showing a clear track record; even one solid, successful project like your first one is a great start.

These syndicators are less likely to field questions or scrutiny from potential LP's on track record, capital stack structure, GP equity investment, fee structure etc.
