The best advice i can give you outside of the great info I saw above is: Connect with a great and savvy Commerical agent.

In a value add you can take this HELOC, grab the property (close on it), fix it up and then re-fi aka a BRRRR because you do not have a ton of risk out there thinking that it will take 3 years to get that HELOC paid off, more like 6 months or 8 months.Value-add ideas: BRRRR, adding square feet to the property, adding an ADU/second unit, buying something at 20% or more of a discount (BRRRR), buying land and building, splitting a lot then building, buying a Commerical property as a single use and turning it into a mixed use... 

I'm trying to close on a commerical refi cash out bridge loan with a lender when I found the following 2 questionable clauses.I asked the lender to remove them but he insisted that it was for the purpose of making sure that I did not lease the property to a relative for cheap and then default on it.What do you think, is this ethical?

Hey All,My husband and I purchased a SFH 5 years ago and just realized that the commerical loan we took out ( under the LLC name) has a maturity date of 5 years.

I am on the board for the CT Commerical real estate alliance. 

I also tried the agent finder and only found 3 hits: 1 commerical and 2 of which seem to be inactive.

I believe you mean a conventional loan instead of commerical but im not sure.I would definitely suggest freeing up the FHA loan because while the low interest rate is nice, your effective interest rate is much higher with the MIP.Usually the extra cash you can get by using the loan for a new property far outweighs the cost of a couple hundred on the int rate plus if you time the refinance properly you can squeeze up to 2 months without making mortgage payments.Hope that helps!
