Post: Reaching out for help - How to fiance my flip -- have collateral

Hi everyone, I am reaching out for help because I am not sure what to do. I know there is a wealth of honest true knowledge here on Biggerpockets. My dilemma is that, I would like to start back flipping again. I need financing to do so. I applied a Home Equity Line of Credit with a Rental property I own free and clear. Pen Federal Credit Union which is listed on the site, they turned me down because they couldn't escrow/taxes/insurance on a HELOC loan and it has to have a 1st lien on it.

So I signed up for a site that connect investors/loan officers and received emails/calls.  One was Anchor loans for a Business Loan.  I am not sure about this, nervous on this one.  Their Loan Origination is $3000.00 plus $1400.00 in Anchor loan fees and 13% interest rate (on a $60,000 Loan).  The loan officer stated they could use my property as collateral instead of a down-payment.  I am just not sure, its seems like a hard money lender to me. Not sure and nervous about this.

My credit score is in high 750+ with excellent credit history.  With all said, anyone has any ideas how I can fiance my next project?  I am out of ideas other than hard money.  I thought hard money was for folks with credit issues.  IF business loan listed is okay, please let me know. IF you know of any other banks that fiance Rental Properties??  Tried TD Bank but they don't lend in my area (GA).  My spouse decided not to sell any of rentals until the market come up.  But he is allowing me to use 1 as collateral. 

I genuinely appreciate any help. Just want to get back in the game.  I need some good solid advise please!! I am nervous and I can't mess this up.

www.terryhowe.com  is a really good one -i think he is licensed in ga and sc.

Check it out on online and he places a lot of his homes on Youtube.com.  He walks the homes with a video camera and tells you about each home/room.  Hold open houses and etc for you to see yourself.  Never had a bad experience with this company.

If you are looking to sell your properties to an investor, I would determine value and stick to a price that is within that value. 

 Thank you, I have a clear picture now of what I need to do!  Happy for the help!

Thank you everyone, see it pays ask for help!!!  Because my direction was totally wrong.  I will run the comps again and be very clear on the value.  Then I will compare with houses that are similar to my houses in the immediate area. I will review their cap rates.

I have somewhat of interest now,  but I wouldn't scare them away for sure.  Thanks for knowledge!!

What is considered a 'good' cap rate depends on the investing area, the investment property itself and what an investor is looking for. You may want to look up some comp properties in ATL that are similar, see what their cap rates are, see how yours compares and then set the price and do your marketing.

 Jay, I don't understand if its turn-key. Am I missing something??  Property is ready to go with tenants and the investor don't have to do anything but collect rent. That has no value??

Most investors who buy turnkey properties are looking at how the property cash flows and what their cash on cash return is, if they pay cash (total annual income/purchase price) and/or the Cap rate (Net Operating Income/market value). So if I were looking for a turnkey property in a good market, I initially look for the CAP rate before I decide to pursue it further. If the investor buyer is using a loan, then that has to be factored in also. You may want to run some of these numbers using your potential asking prices and see what would appeal most to a buyer.

To be clear, is this the way I would figure it. Property was listed for $129,900 and generated an NOI (NET) of $8540.00 a year, then the cap rate would be 8540.00/129,900. But a good cap rate is 9% to another investor????
