Currently under contract for a large off-market residential property.Quick details: 4,200+ sqft 12bed / 5bath (2 kitchens) (No a flood zone)(Light - Medium rehab / rent-by-the-room play)My partner has been a PM in this community for 20+ years and is highly confident in this deal (as am I).The current issue is, we aren't confident the property can close with a bank due to a few seller complications.( ^Very long story, but if you want to hear it I will tell you haha)We're looking to over-raise about $335k ($255k purchase and $80k for the rehab).But we (and our contractors) know the rehab portion will come in a bit lower.Can anyone point me in the right direction?
