Blanket loan to finance all in LLC and remove all from personal credit, then you free up personal credit for 10 more properties.

Downside: Blanket loans are commercial loans. Rates are higher than residential loans and there are no 15 fix or 30 fix options. Only 5,7,10 arms and usually have origination points.

Upside:  So what... what has higher value to you:  A) save a 1/2% on the rate or B)generate 5% appreciation on millions of dollars in additional real estate? 

[Kris] - Yeah, this is good. Only problem I see is 10 year. With 10 years, the payment will be little high. Does 10 year ARM means the rate is fixed for 10 year? In this case, will the Amortization Period be 10 years or 30 years? If 30 years, do I have to pay the full balance after 10 years?

@Kris Gupta Have you considered a blanket/portfolio loan that could lump all of these properties together into one commercial note?

 [Kris] - This is a good idea. I was thinking about this but was not sure how to proceed with this. My total loan balances from all investment properties would be around $750,000. Not sure which banks/lenders to reach out to get this.

You need to find a portfolio lender, which is a bank that holds their own paper (doesn’t sell to Fannie Mae).  Lots of smaller banks are portfolio lenders.  You can just call them up and ask for a loan officer and they can tell you quickly if they sell their loans or hold them.  You will likely be offered w commercial loan, which will have a slightly higher interest rate and a 5 year re-lock on 20-25 year amortization... so less friendly terms, but it will get your deal done.  We got about .5% above what a residential lender could do... but the math still worked, so was a good deal for us. 

Also, you don’t mention if you are married or not, but know that you can have 10 loans  and a spouse can have 10 loans as long as you buy them in your individual names.  My wife and I have 17 between us right now.   

All the best!

[Kris] - Thanks Randy. I am married. The mistake I did initially was, when I took the first few loans, these loans have both names on it. And moreover, my wife is now self employed (previously she was on w-2), so that makes it little more difficult to get loan on her name and her income is not that much. 
0.5% higher is nothing, I can easily accept that rate and 20-25 year term would also work fine for me. So, now I need to find a "portfolio lender" . I"ll call few local banks and give it a try. Thanks for the advice

Kris,

You are in a good position to benefit from taking out one or more conforming loans.  The rates are almost half of what you have been getting with private/hard money.  How soon are you looking to start the process.

The number of properties is not a factor with certain banks.  Where other can only refinance or hold 5-8 per portfolio or on their paper.  

[Kris]  - Thank you for the response. I am planning to start the process in 1 week. My goal is to buy another property in next 1 month or so.

Good morning folks. I currently own 15 single family homes. Out of which 5 are fully paid (which are about 1 Million) and I have 10 homes which has mortgage on it. All of my loans are conventional 30 year loans. As you know Fannie mae, Freedie mac has a limit of 10 loans. My question is how to get loan for another property which I am planning to buy?

These days interest rates on investment properties are around 3.5 % - 3.75%.  How can I get a loan below 4%? Can I get secured loan? Unsecured loan? Which banks or lenders? Interest rate below or somewhat close to 4% is very important for me.

I have never worked/try with private lenders. My understanding is, private lenders give very high interest rate around 6% or above, even though my credit score is around 750

Any advise on this will be very helpful

Thanks

I have been looking for Dollar General/Dollar Tree/Family Dollar deals. There are some deals where the builder has constructed new building and leased to Dollar General. These have 15 year lease term remaining and after that 4x5 renewal options with 10% increase. Cap rate is around 6.5%

How are these deals? During the 15 year lease terms, any possibility they will not pay rent? What other things I should be looking for?

Thanks

Post: Family Dollar for Sale

Hi All,

I made an offer to buy Family Dollar in December 2019. My offer was just a little less and the Seller accepted someone else offer that time.

2 days back I got the message form seller mentioning that the other buyer is not performing and this deal will be available and they are asking if I want to send my back up offer.

This has 5 year lease remaining and after this there are 4x5 renewal options with 10% increase

My questions are...

1> During the current lease term will Family Dollar continue to pay rent in this market? Can they stop paying or can they ask for rent reduction?
2> What are the chances that after 5 year they will renew the lease?

Thanks
Kris
