Post: Duplex Conversion (Atlanta GC)

Hi BP,

I’m in the process of submitting an offer and would like to have a reputable GC in the Atlanta GA area walk a property to provide an estimate on a Duplex Conversion.

Any GCs you can share? Or should I use Thumbtack?

Lastly, any idea on how duplex conversions are appraised?

The meeting with the hard money lender went well. A few major takeaways; 

- Typical due diligence period needed to process the loan? 48 hours to look at the deal. Order Appraisal process 5 – 7 days.

- What is the interest rate of the loan and is it fixed? 

(Fix n Flip) 8 – 12% 12 months with a renewal option. 

(Rent Loan) 5 - 7% 30 years fixed IR. A prepayment penalty if paid off within the first 5 years. 

- LTV or does it depend on the project/appraisal? Depends on Appraisal and ARV, will typically loan up to 80% of LTV

- Will they fund 100% rehab? Yes

- Please further explain your points process if you have one? 2 or 3

- Are points paid upfront? Paid at closing

What is the rehab draw process? Is there a cost for each draw? $150 – $250 per draw. When work is done. Inspector out there immediately, upon approval, the buyer will be able to draw. Materials and any upfront fees for the home improvements will be out of pocket. 

I have a meeting scheduled today with a conventional bank lender to discuss their options and refinance process. I am planning to get pre-approved for a refinance during the due-diligence period of the BRRRR method.

@Lisa Eckman

Great question, the current requirements are:

- Articles of Incorporation

- Company’s Operating Agreement

- Purchase Contract

- Itemized Rebab Budget (If renovating)

- GC License & GC insurance

- Color Copy of Guarantor ID

- Home Owners Insurance Policy (Due at Closing)

- Certificate of Good Standing from Secretary of the State

- Application

- Appraisal (by 3rd Party)

- Optional (Sketches depending on rehab work)

@Tony Sas

I really appreciate the feedback!

Hi BP,

I currently have a meeting scheduled with a Hard Money Lender that specializes in fix & flips. I have a list of their required items but what are some questions I should be asking them to ensure they are the right fit for me?

New investor, I currently don’t have a deal under contract yet.

@Nathan Asher Robson run the numbers and rental comps in the area. At the end of the day if the numbers make sense move forward with the process, you’ll always have a chance to conduct a thorough inspection and pull out if anything comes up your not willing to fix.

@John Vu check our episode 310 of the Bigger Pockets Podcast. Jennifer Baylee’s had a very similar situation searching for deals in Denver but eventually choosing to invest in Colorado Springs
