Sheldon Alex Wrap Mortgage Private Money Partner Analysis
30 July 2024 | 6 replies
Once fully satisfied, the split becomes 50/50.When accessing this deal, here’s what went through my mind:A PMP would have to be okay with holding their funds long-termThe borrower would need to be experienced with doing wraps, as it takes time to get willing and able buyerThe borrower would need experience in pivoting to a different exit strategy should they fail to successfully execute a wrapWith NO EQUITY on the property originally, and the PMP being in second position, the borrower would likely need to cross-collateralize if the PMP has NO INTEREST in taking over the propertyMy conclusion, from looking at this from a thoroughly analytical standpoint, would be only someone who has a moderate to high risk tolerance and cares about cash flow without pulling out and parking their money into numerous deals would likely lend on this.Anyways, thoughts anyone?
