Just don't burn any bridges.

But can the referral fee contract be enforced, to collect the front end point, and backend equity share payout offered, after the bridge loan balloons or is paid off early?

My parents had a lady that was suing us at one of our rental properties one time, my brother had a heart transplant, my friend jumped off the golden gate bridge, and another friend I know died before he finished high school from a seizure.

I have seen many of these penalties but only on large contracts like a bridge, highway or large commercial building.

I heard about a company that sell investment property in Birmingham for 55k-75k with $500 down using a bridge loan and a tenant in place.

My suggestion is to secure a first at the maximum LTV possible and bridge the gap with "equity" funding construed as a taxable grant which requires no repayment and then bring the rest of the funds yourself.

I am not very experienced and would greatly appreciate any advice on things I may be overlooking or just flat out missing.Thank you,JH Bridge

The above was mostly a suggested approach to building bridges rather than repelling anyone else from offering help.

I "could" add a contingency on property review, but don't want to burn bridges with REO agents by backing out of offers after the bank has accepted them and I then view the property and see its a money pit.

We have 100% JV funding, hard money/bridge loans, 100% funding for Multi-family and Healthcare for Non-profits, Non-recourse for multi-family construction/perm/purchase/refi/rehab, NPN purchase, loans for income producing property, among others...We lend across industry so it has to be something unique/innovative.
