Underwriting sponsors well is also very complicated and is best done in the same way that any investment's risk is mitigated; through diversification.  

Sure you can use TF to wholesale your deal, but you need to have enough room to allow for the costs of financing and the double closing costs.Risk ranges on circumstances and can be mitigated, so that blanket question is almost impossible to answer.

Some lenders put their own rules in place to mitigate perceived risk.  

In 1952 Polio out breaks.. it was the same thing as we are facing now..

And investments, not economic rents.I'm sure this law is intended to mitigate the myopic throat slashing practices of the big banks that care little for people and communities.

It it impossible to mitigate all risk, I am at my 10th rehab and still make errors, do not be afraid to take on your own project. 

I've found that provides a fair return while mitigating downside risk for them. 

I think you mitigated some real risk.

On a different note can anyone recommend a portfolio or commercial lender in Chicago that can offer a fixed rate so I can mitigate my interest rate risk.My loan is currently with Lakeside Bank and I have been pleased with their service, however they do not offer fixed rates for 15-30 years.In particular, I have a 6 unit that has a balloon and want to lock down rate so I don't need to worry about rising rates in future.Thanks in advance.

Having quality local representatives, local advisors, and local partners is necessary to mitigate these risks.
