@Thomas DePaul 70% is going to be the standard from 9/10 banks but I have of one lending source who entertains 80% on mixed use purchases only problem is the loan minimum is $250k...  If you come across a similar deal and want to see if we could qualify for 80% let me know.  

For 80% LTV expect to have to have over 700 FICO and experience managing/owning commercial property.

@Mark Creason He's talking about FHA 223(f). They do 87% LTV. @Jim Macedon They allow up to 7.5% in Subordinate Debt on a case by case basis.

Couple of key points on this product:

Minimum Loan Size is $1 million

Experience is required so @David Acosta 's point of partnering is typically the best idea

Property must debt cover over 1.17. With such a high LTV loan which requires mortgage insurance you may have a tough time finding a deal that would cash flow.

Oh wait here's the best part of this program.....

Average processing time is 6-9 months!  lol anyone else still interested?

In my opinion..... you're 100 x better off finding a principal partner and coming into a 5+ unit investment with at least 20% down.

@Claire Pember Hope this bumps your post up a bit.  

Our brokerage offers Fix and Flip Lines of Credit for experienced flippers with at least 2 Flips under their belt. The line typically has an exposure limit of 5x the borrower's liquidity and can be used to draw 90% acquisition and 90% renovations (75% ARV).

Feel free to reach out anytime and I hope we can do some business together and get those homes sold in SD!

@Tracy Horn I'm always impressed with flippers getting in down below 32 degrees!  

What terms did Bank of Odessa offer you?

@Andrew Smith Totally, I've strongly encouraged him to create a profile.

I can only really vouch for people I've dealt with first hand but always eager to support my fellow BP contributors!

I noticed this topic is picking up some traction again in other forums.  Thought I should leave a link for my solar panel guy here http://www.geelectric.us/

Mike McQuillen is the man!  Not a BP member but he's definitely who I would recommend for any property owners in the Ventura, Santa Clarita, and Santa Barbara counties looking for help with solar panel installation!  He also makes some badass fishing lures!  https://www.instagram.com/deadhorsebaits/?hl=en
