What type of lending/loan works for this oddball property?
Looking at a property that needs rehab--a 7-unit property. Purchase $300K, rehab $100K. So far the lenders I've spoken to aren't a good fit. Either they only lend on 1-4; or if it's >4 units, minimum loan is greater than what I need; or they don't have minimum loan amount but won't do the rehab financing, property has to already be fixed up; or they only do as-is and I must finance the rehab on my own.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Guessing this will need to be a commercial loan, which is why it is probably tricky. Commercial loans, in general, kinda blow :(
Yup, this is a commercial financing scenario. Not my wheelhouse. Lima One might be a good place to call, based on what other clients of mine have used after moving into the commercial world. I get a bunch of spam related to commercial financing (technically my license allows it) but never read it.
