Brokers asking for 8000-1000 deposit for commercial loan

[Paul Hurtubise]

Hello BP Community,

I have brokers asking for deposits now a days, is this something new? I have a 35 unit apartment building I am trying to refinance. I have 2 potential loans which are good, but they are asking for 8,300 and 10,000 for deposit for them, appraisal and 3rd party reports. I already lost 8500 last year with a company who pulled a bait and switch on me. Any input would be great. I am in a rehab loan I need to get out of. 

The property is cash flowing.

Thank you in advance,

Paul
