I have a question and would really appreciate your input.I’ve done a couple of fix-and-flip projects in the past using hard money lenders, but I’ve noticed that their fees and interest rates significantly cut into my profits.

I am also a project manager and a architectural designer for a real estate developer in NYC. 

As a family-run business we’re curious—what factors do lenders prioritize most when evaluating projects like ours?

As agents, what are your current and projected concerns in the market place?

I have worked on a few projects in Scarsdale and know the appreciation is there.

So here we are, halfway through escrow period, and I'm very excited to watch this project come to fruition.Anyone on this platform invest in SL?

An easy flip at 7-10% return might be more lucrative than a larger project that takes longer and more chances for cost over runs. 

I am a current college student and gained interest in real estate as I am working on a project focused on finding ways to expand opportunities for real estate investors.

Personally I was not stoked on the engagement fee and on that particular project, the listing agent (who promised to notify us if anyone else was kicking the tires on the lots) sold one of them and the project didn't make sense at the new number or units. 

I'm not the underwriter who approves the loan, I just know what they need which is usually a thorough overview and proof of recently completed projects, where you were the GC.
