Immediately refinance Hard money loan
I’m closing on my 2nd flip in a few weeks using hard money.
I’m estimating it’ll probably take 4 months to do the rehab and another 2-3 to market and sell the property.
I could get a conventional loan but this property wouldn’t qualify due to some minor issues, and the seller was distressed and needed a quick close.
The numbers work either way, but if I were to remedy the minor issues within a couple weeks could I refinance immediately and save a ton on my holding costs. Anyone have experience doing this? Is it worth the hassle? Is it even possible at all?
