Welcome to the BP community!

I met him at an event in Oakland and was not impressed personally all he would say is he does big deals for big money.. and I know how hard it is to do business with those in his community it really surprises me how people followed and invested as much as they did.

Hey @Mary Anne Echu, welcome to the BiggerPockets community!

Hi Jorge, glad to have you as part of this community! 

@Tayvion Payton to get a better understanding of the loan products, it's best to have a conversation with a commercial loan officer at a local community bank or credit union.On commercial, the number one rule is a deal meeting their DSCR loan covenant, which is typically 1.2 to 1.25. 

Property TypeUnderstand the different types of multifamily properties:High-Rise: 9+ floors with an elevator, often urban.Mid-Rise: Smaller than high-rise, usually with elevators.Garden-Style: Low-rise apartments in suburban or rural settings.Walk-Up: 4–6 stories without elevators.Manufactured Housing Communities: Mobile home parks where land is leased to homeowners.Special-Purpose Housing:Student Housing: Designed for college students.Senior Housing: Dedicated to older adults.Subsidized Housing: Affordable housing supported by rent and income restrictions.3.

I'm an asset-based (hard money) lender from Atlanta with an extensive 15-yr background in residential and commercial real estate looking to learn more from the BP community and how I can help those that need investment financing. 

I have observed the older appraisers often have a outdated view of values especially in recently appreciating communities. 

Another work around that isn’t discussed much is working on a strategy with your insurance company to protect your other assets in the event of a claim.But also, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to consider getting the financing into your LLc name with a community bank and pulling cash out if you have substantial equity.Right now, since the loan is in your name, it shows up on your personal credit report.
