also last point is when you basically see teaser rates for 8 or 9% HML that does not include points and junk fee's lenders need to net at least 4k per file to stay in business and they can get that through a combination of income channels.. the interest rate spread right now is as stated extremely low.. in my day of lending at 20% apr which was routine my cost of capital was 7 to 8% and we made the delta.. that's a decent spread and business given the risk.also for the best rates you need some pretty good experience behind you.. what you can borrow for and i can borrow for is not what someone entering the market or only has done 3 flips is going to get..

I routinely turn down new clients because there is just no way to make some property cash flow.

They're also uncomfortable and the closed cars tend to feel hot.
