you could just tell your friendly banker that you have a

as collateral


and they will bring you a sack of $$




seriously - the others are steering you right - do not borrow against your house for the 150k. also make it a "LLC" or an "Inc."
type operation if the business would have any liability exposures at all. that way you could minimize your personal risk.
