Ben Foullon Holding Company Question
5 November 2024 | 11 replies
As mentioned if the holding company is not solely holding or owning assets together funneling monies as a loan would further complicate if there is a default but also cause you to file extra tax returns = $...Yes you are taxed on interest income or any money that you make, does not matter how you structure it, what comes into play is not how much your taxed but how much you pay someone to figure out for you how much you need to pay and each layer is an added cost.

Hey Account Closed - Check out your competition with furnished finder that is where a lot of Medium Turn rentals list their properties.I have a MTR in Chicago that has been decently successful...whatever I have found throughout my entire life and investing career is it is never one property/deal that is a grand slam...Rather, the grand slam is done by hitting many singles and using systems and processes to scale your operation; the combination of scaling and experience in a niche of real estate allows you to hit unlimited grand slams because, unlike baseball, real estate is NOT a zero-sum game.
Andrew Lax Private Lending - Whats your ideal loan
4 November 2024 | 7 replies
If you're getting back into the lending game for long-term hold investors, a realistic “ideal” loan might look like this:Rates: Somewhere around 6-8% interest, depending on the risk profile of the borrower and the property.LTV: 70-80% LTV is solid, especially if you're aiming for lower risk.Term: 5-10 years works for LTR investors who want stability.Fees: Reasonable origination fee (1-2%) is expected, but avoid nickel-and-diming borrowers with hidden fees.Prepayment: A soft prepayment penalty could be fair if paid off in the first couple of years, but after that, no penalties.Speed: Being able to close quickly (within a couple of weeks) would be a huge plus.In short, give investors a competitive rate, decent terms, and flexibility on prepayment, and you’re golden.
