I really like this way of vetting how much money they have. If anyone doesn't know, some (smaller) lenders occasionally run out of money and it could delay your closing while they try to source new funds and/or sell their notes to liquidate.

It does look like your junk fees are sky high. Particularly the 1% of escrowed amount AND $175 draw. So if you have a 50k rehab you are paying 500+175 to take money out? That is a bit much.

I disagree with "pay junk fees or points, not both." If you want to believe that the junk fees are a number that actually cover some costs associated with originating the loan, then charging a fixed interest rate will nearly every time end up meaning you are overcharged.

I like to explain our junk fees as actual costs that we end up paying. If we decided to charge an extra 0.5 points to everyone to cover the costs, then anything beyond a certain dollar amount will overpay.

If I am not mistaking, there are several exceptions that you can apply for:

Owner is actively seeking to sell or rent the building; Building is under active construction; building is the subject of a probate proceeding or title is subject of litigation; building is subject of a pending application before a dc development board, special exemptions granted by the mayor.

Lenders typically like to see interest flowing monthly, as it shows if there are any problems during the project (stop paying, lates, etc). However, there are lenders that will float all the payments til the end of the loan. In my experience, they are a bit more expensive than a monthly I/O payment lender.

Hi Faysal!

I wasn't able to follow this paragraph. 

Do you have an investor who is willing to go 300-400k in if you go 25k in? I would say that is fantastic leverage - just make sure you have an attorney assist you in going over the deal to protect you and your assets. Don't give money directly, be sure that the property is in your name and the mortgage and note are reasonable, with all the pertinent information clear and visible.
