2 mortgages but need to borrow!

thank you for any help comments firstly.
I am in a pickle.. I have 2 mortgages 1 being a Buy to let. I just tried to remortgage that but it was a no go, as they require mentioned having 145% in the deal. I am also 24 so Not a lot of lenders want to touch me so I am told.
I don't think there would be much equity in the house I am living in as I remortaged that around 18 months ago.
I really wanted to take 50k out which is the money that is realistically in the BTL property. I would consider selling it to release that money but I really require the money in the next couple of weeks, I guess it might take 6 months to sell.
Is there another way guys? what would be the best course of action? My hours are down currently as recently had a baby although I know these applications are fairly flexible cough.
no problem making any repayments.
thanks

Speak to a broker. It’s possible to do 120% at 4.5% on the calculations using top slicing on the BTL. Top slicing is the lender topping up the difference with your salary to cover the shortfall for their calculation0

6 months to sell but you also need to get your tennants out too... which may be a long process0

What is the value of the BTL and what is the outstanding mortgage?
Realistically, you are only going to be able to get a mortgage of 75%/80% of the value. No-one is going to give you 100%, so this;-I really wanted to take 50k out which is the money that is realistically in the BTL propertyI am a mortgage broker.
