That part i'm not concerned with -- what i want to know is:"How can the seller -- instead of discounting the price of the property by an additional $1.4M -- offer me the $1.4M in cash at time of closing"  So the bank is still only loaning 75%-80% of the appraised value... i still put up 20%-25% in cash... but i then get a big cash check at closing - or in a side escrow deal - which enhances my cash-on-cash return that much more.
