i bought a dewalt because all the review on epinions sounded like the other orbital sanders, while more powerful, is it's own worse enemy since due to it's aggressiveness, can lead to gouges and grooves.so i decided to re-sand everything down to its original state and re-stain with a lighter stain - classic oak color. if its my own home ( actually i technically live in it right now), i would have been more risque but you guys are right, if its potentially a rental/investment, you need to go neutral!
Clay Kelton 30 yr Fixed loans on apartment buildings ?

Leverage varies by market - typically 75%-80%, rates are generally in line with banks, and the property scrutiny and underwriting time is lighter than FHA.Downside is the prepayment penalties are generally pretty onerous with defeasance/yield maintenance and there are hard net worth and liquidity requirements tied to the prospective debt service and loan amount.FHA can be used under the 223f program, which has a 35 year fixed rate fully amortizing term with rates generally lower than banks or Fannie/Freddie, but the underwriting timeline is longer and the soft costs are higher during underwriting, which means it's only economical above ~$2mm.Also of note, FHA will require much higher scrutiny of the property (because the loan term is so long), so projects in disrepair or with deferred maintenance may be in for a surprise when the PCNA comes back.Both are better than bank loans unless you can get a local lender to do a longer fixed term - some aggressive lenders will do so.
