The process is somewhat easy to navigateCon:The LTV is usually 65%-70% of the ARVThe origination and misc fees are heftyThe interest rate is HORRIFIC (high 7% to mid 8%)The problem that I’ve faced is that when going through other lenders with better terms, their underwriting process is more difficult and more importantly in one scenario, their appraiser came back with an appraisal that was $30k lower than “company A.”I could really use some advice on how you have all found cash-out refi lenders that help your business grow time and time again.

Mannan Razzak how to find comps for 6 unit
29 May 2019 | 24 replies
If it’s not listed then pull up a tax assessment on the property to get a ballpark number of the assessed value.Typically if the purchase price I calculate is within 25% or less of their asking price then I dive deeper into the property evaluation.Example for the 6 Unit:Annual Income: $72,000 (The owner tells you each unit rents for $1,000/mo)Annual Expenses: $36,000 (50% Rule)NOI: $36,000 (AI - AE)CAP Rate: 6% (You found this from a local broker)Purchase Price: $600,000 (NOI / 0.06)Seller's Asking Price: $660,000With this example your calculated Purchase Price is within 10% of their Asking Price, so I would dive deeper, find more information from either the broker or seller and pursue as an investment if all else checks out.Good luck Mannan, I hope you get yourself a new 6-unit property!
