The lender does charge the flipper 4 points upfront, and the note represents 55% of the property’s ARV, so I’m not too worried about needing to foreclose if it comes to that.The lender uses his own capital for initial funding and then sells off the notes after that.

I don't think enough people consider this aspect.Selling Stock: Selling part of your portfolio could work, but the 15% capital gains tax might make this an expensive choice unless the stock has underperformed or you’re diversifying away from riskier investments.HELOC: Using a HELOC on an existing property is a flexible and relatively low-cost option.
