They could easily pay 50% two weeks early, then pay the other 50% on the first so they are always on time.

BUT the larger the deal the harder it becomes to pursue a rehab strategy with meaningful impact on appreciation. 

We lend on projects of this size!

Or are taxes one of the things that is line on the spreadsheet that just has to make sense in regards to the overall deal? 

I wouldn’t put too much blame on the lender, as this is a seller issue related to the title.

After discussing with my we have agreed on what we think is the correct buy box for us.

I am on my first BRRRR and the issue is lenders keep only wanting to lend on 80% of the purchase price and not the actual appraised value, which would keep my money tied up on the rehab portion as well as 20% of the purchase price.

That was on Friday at 7pm.

Quote from @Chris Seveney: We were deep into due diligence on a loan purchase, and everything looked solid.

Well I did lose money on paper with the llc but if they would of looked further they would of seen income of over 200k that I paid taxes on.
