Hi, 

I am working with HML which is charging a 0% origination fee, but we have a loan processing fee and other legal fees adding to $1800.

is this normal?

Thanks,

EKL


 Sounds off and something is wrong. From my experience, I have never seen a Hard Money loan without at least a point.

Quote from @Elvis Dur:

I own a property duplex,  no mortgage on it , and looking for a company who is able to help with a cash out refinance loan, or any kind of loans. 

I own another duplex with a small mortgage on it.

My tax returns in the last two years are not to bright, one reason is Covid years and the lots of deductions that I used for those two years. 

The Rocket Mortgage refused my refinance just for this reason, not enough tax return to support the loan.

Any advise?

I wish to thank in advance for all your responses.

Thank you!


 We should be able to lend in this scenario as long as your credit score is over 620. Please message me when you have a free moment. I look forward to pricing your situation. 

From my experience, if this is a first-time fix and flip you may need to show reserves for the rehabilitation amount. 

How much are you looking to place down on the property?

looking at Private Lender's to fund property.  What are pros and cons?  Is 1% fee typical?  Things to look out for?  how do I verify I wont get burned?


 If you are looking for a Private Lender/ Hard Money Lender then the average fee is between 1% and 3%. It is based on the down payment, experience, and credit score. The only out-of-pocket expense is for the appraisal. Also, if you are looking to add rehab funds then they are issued on a draw basis. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Quote from @Daniel Petta:

Hey everyone,

I'm pursuing a whole deal for this portfolio of two properties (9 unit apartment / quadplex) and having trouble finding financing options and was hoping for some advice.

I am new to real estate investing and finally closed on my first property two weeks ago, a duplex in Milwaukee, and now have this Indiana wholesale deal that I'm very interested in but can't seem to find a way to finance the deal.  

I've called local banks and commercial lenders and they all have said no for a mixture of reasons but the highlights are:

* I'm an out of state investor (based in CA that will use local property management)

* The deal is less than $1M ($400k to be exact)

* I'm not a seasoned investor (yet)

I'm in a position that I can purchase the unit with cash, borrow against stocks as a bridge loan but want to refinance shortly thereafter. The units are stabilized with good cash flow and fully leased so no immediate rehab but there will be some down the road. The units cash flow pretty well with my conservative underwriting with a 1.35 DSCR and 11% cap rate

So any guidance would be helpful.

My strategy is to invest in multifamily for cash flow and long term hold so these affordable 5-12 unit apartments are enticing seems that finding financing is a struggle?


As long as you have a middle score of over 640 then funding is available.

You may have the option of either keeping them as a portfolio or individually within a DSCR loan. I'm currently in the process of closing two portfolio deals. Below are some of the criteria we required.

Quote from @Kimberly Schroeder:

I have a BEAUTIFUL investment opportunity with a cash flowing, turnkey acquisition sitting on my plate with a DSCR loan available to me. My only problem is, I am just starting out and I do not have the cash to put down the down payment. I am seeking a PML for the down payment, but man if it didn't get mucked up and confusing by "lending" providers. Conrad Lending offers a commercial loan using my own information, credit and income as a qualification process and that seems to defeat the purpose of a PML. Should I steer clear of going through a branded "PML Company".

Help! and thank you!


Everyone here is pretty spot on. It is in your best interest to find a capital partner and create an LLC. A down payment is always going to be required. It will range from 25% to 10% contingent upon experience.

Looking for Non-QM lenders with no W2 income required for investment properties


 There are many lenders that provide loans without W2 income. What is your experience? 

Quote from @Linda Foster:

How do I find short term funding (6 months to purchase all cash and then renovate) to purchase a distressed below market home in Northern CA at 100% financing?  I've called private lenders but they require 40% down!  What's the point?  Might as well cash out my investments and do a conventional investor loan at 75/25.....What are the requirements for these lenders to loan at 100% for short term and how do I find them?

The average required down payment is about 15 to 20%. However if you can show a history of over 3 completed within the past year then you may receive 10% down. Each client has their own unique parameters but as far as zero equity down that market seems to be a unicorn from my experience.

Hey BP Fam, 

Two opportunities are available. Looking for a lender who would like to park money into an asset and receive monthly winnings. 

7 Units Purchase 600K Rehab 100K ARV 950K+
11 Units Purchase 1M Rehab 175K ARV  1.5M+  

Private lender Term 2 Years (1 Year minimum) 8-9% Interest Only (Monthly or quarterly payments)

First position lien as security on the loan mailbox money every month 


 We are a lender located in NY. Maybe we can have a discussion in regards to funding these two deals.

Quote from @Anirudh Reddy:

Hello, 

I was recommended by my realtor to use Avalon capital as hard money lender in Memphis area for BRRRR. Has anyone used them before? How has your experience been?

Thanks,

Ani


 I never used them but have worked with properties within Memphis via wholesale. I suggest to see if they have any recent social proof. From reviewing there website, they seem worth reviewing a bit further. Maybe actually review your scenario over the phone with one of their Capital Experts.
