Refinancing a commercial property
I'm looking at owner-financing a 30 unit multi-family for about $1.6M, with monthly payments, and a ballon payment in 3 years.
Question:
Will the bank refinance me after year one or two with no down payment? For example:
If I were able to bring the property value up to $2.5M, and the bank refinances me at 75% of the $2.5M value, would they let me cash out $1.875M (75% of the $2.5M) and pay off the owner ($1.6M balance)?
Thank you in advance of your responses. I don't want to get stuck with a building that can potentially default.
