A loan commitment letter carries more weight as it confirms lender approval, signaling a stronger ability to close.Addressing Closing Concerns: A commitment letter meaningfully reduces concerns, especially when paired with proof of equity and a track record of performance, even if on smaller deals.What Brokers Look For: Key factors are a reputable lender, clear terms in the commitment, and evidence of funds for equity and reserves.

These factors contribute to a stable and expanding economy, which can drive demand for housing.

The Arizona economy today is much different from what it was in 2008 when housing and construction drove our growth.

With your balance sheet and cash, you can put together creative deals without giving up equity and without using your cash but you are going to need to find a market and product which has 7-8% cap rates.I invest in the northeast, Great Lakes area.Diverse economies with education, healthcare as the back bone and tech as growth.In your area, you’ll have to raise way more capital in the form of equity just to meet DSCR with the banks.

I can’t say I disagree with the analysis, just think (I’m sure this will sound incredibly stupid in the future) ultimately bonds and mortgages are likely to trade in a very narrow band the next few months, without a really nasty recession I find it hard to see them getting much below the 3.75% they hit Monday, I also think the Fed wants to keep the number below 4.25% because while I don’t think the economy is in a recession or anything it’s clear to me and I think the Fed as well l, that the economy probably can’t handle another year of rates above that, they will lower rates & possibly even taper qt to achieve that outcome.

Looking good! Are you taking advantage yet?
