It’s priced below value, but people aren’t fond of the area, low walkability score, near a bus stop, etc.I’m nearing the end of a hard money loan and I’m wondering if it’s possible to do a cash out refinance on a HARD MONEY loan.

You didn't mention the interest rate or FICO score though, so that can be reviewed too.

@Joe Villeneuve I have a similar situation, I have a 743 fico score, with a credit card that have a remaining 12,000 to pay off a 20,000 card.

We also have a screening requirement to do a video interview with any applicant having a FICO score under 620 - the whole point is to have them show us their kitchen, bathroom and one other room.

**Credit Unions or Local Banks**: Smaller financial institutions like credit unions or regional banks might be more open to taking a second position, especially if you have a good relationship with them.3.

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.

However, one has the credit score while the other has the rehab IQ… how would you structure the deal between two partners for starting out?

Make sure they are open ended objective questions.It's just another data point to add to credit score, background check, income, etc etcI can share the question I ask if you want.

I would just make sure to reach out to some local lenders shortly after so all the hard pulls get grouped together and don't impact your credit score as much.
