It's interesting what people will do in acts of desparation.In my experience, lenders (specifically private lenders) will do what they can to work with a borrower to avoid foreclosure, which is a costly endeavor for the lender and requires time to process, usually months and months, depending on your state.Also, while an LLC is often considered a safeguard to protect personal assets, a lender using an LLC for multiple loans may have a substantial value to their LLC, which could all be at risk.Finally, if the wrongful foreclosure suit is legitimate and based on an error by the lender themselves, an attorney could logically sue both the LLC and the individual.

There is usually always a reason for the way things are - more often than not people do not ask the simple “why” because they are too embarrassed, make assumptions, or simply prefer to ignore their knowledge gaps.

The formula for calculating DSCR is straightforward:DSCR=NetOperatingIncome(NOI)/TotalDebtServiceNet Operating Income (NOI) represents the property's income after operating expenses.Total Debt Service includes all debt obligations, such as loan payments, property taxes, and insurance.A DSCR ratio above 1 indicates that the property's income is sufficient to cover its debt obligations, while a ratio below 1 suggests insufficient cash flow to cover debt payments.Lenders usually have specific DSCR requirements, with higher ratios indicating lower risk for the lender.
