Sometimes it's best to cut your losses and move on.

So, in your example it might be at 9% interest rate which would make the weighted average HIGHER than taking out a mortgage at today's interest rates because the 2nd mortgage would be 3x as much as the 1st mortgage. 2.

And for example there was a Crowd Street deal (Nightingle) where the sponsor omitted losses from their claimed track record (and ultimately was fraud...they never even bought the claimed property).And there appeared to be some difficulty or confusion with obtaining the full and complete track record ( including both realized and unrealized deals).

There are some accumulated passive losses but not much.

It would have been a different story if we were selling at a loss or a very small gain, but we were happy with the profit we made from the sale, and more importantly the experience we gained, so all the time and effort felt worth it to us.

Although we do have deals on the lending side that dont work but we are not forced into a position to take big loss's like we were when the banks were calling our loans.. this will happen in the DSCR world as all these folks are using same type of debt IE debt that can be called based on the terms of the debt or like you have seen with the syndicators that are talked about on BP max leverage bad debt things dont go right And you have cap calls or projects totally lost. 

When an offer came in for 30 cents on the dollar, I decided bail out, so took a 70% loss. 

So I am at a loss and would really appreciate any advice. 

The difference would depending on your exact deal though, each of those are weighted differently. 

Which is why the "it works" forces point to it working and the "its bunk" forces can show that it is not magic, it is just paying more each month.It "works" because people don't realize they are actually causing a loss aversion reaction in themselves.
