Points can go both ways traditionally points are paid by the borrower to the lender for a rate chosen however there is rebate points which the lender pays the borrower for chosen rate for example4.000% borrower pays 1 point to the lender for this rate4.500% is a -0- point rate5.000$ the lender pays the borrower a point for this rateNotice in this example the lower rate at 4% the lender gets paid a point then at 4.5% neither the borrower or the lender pays a point to one another then at 5% because the borrower is taking a higher rate the lender is willing to pay the borrower 1 point.

Hello, my girlfriend is a travel nurse and is looking to buy her first home but cannot seem to find any traditional financing since she is technically a "contractor" and has only been travel nursing for 1 year.

Total cost to sell all 5 lots could be as low as $2,750 instead of paying $57,000 using a traditional agent.Feel free to reach out if you have questions.

I'm looking for someone to help with financial/retirement planning who is experienced with retirement portfolios that consist of real estate along with traditional vehicles such as 401Ks/IRAs.

SBA loans are designed to help small businesses obtain financing that may not be available through traditional lenders, such as banks.

Pros:Faster process: Private money lenders may be able to move more quickly than traditional lenders, as they are often more flexible and may have fewer regulatory requirements.

Even if you just went the traditional LTR route though, you should be able to break even at a minimum in most medium-sized markets and larger.

Granted I can come up with 25% and get financing for the construction and convert to a traditional loan after, I think its feasible.

Also - research cash out refinancing - you can use HELOC for down payment, get a traditional mortgage - then 6 months later you can refinance and get your cash out at 75% LTV.
