Its a whole different caliber of contractor you deal with in new construction (typically).

I think this is pretty typical of the ultra wealthy..

For example, if a property is clearly a rental, does that typically have a higher chance of success?

ALSO, I have not had to do an eviction following a partial payment agreement (so I don't know exactly how that would pan out in our courts), all of my tenants have so far completed their payment agreements as signed.Multifamily Northwest has forms for these types of things available via the Rental Forms Center at https://rentalformscenter.com/ Their forms are typically well reviewed by local attorneys; as you'll note, on the Partial Rent Payment Receipt there is verbiage specifically about if the landlord has/has not served a termination notice and reserving the landlords right to eviction if the agreement is not completed. 

Your deal looks solid and falls within the typical range for Cleveland.

There is a "sponsor exemption" but that only allows an unlicensed person to raise money but it cannot be more than 50% of their duties and the pay they receive cannot be based on how much they raised.If you have never raised $, a family office will be off the table as they typically want the company to ahve atleast $50-$100M in assets. 

Typically when you see "cash only" the agent doesn't believe the property can pass a home inspection which isn't relevant for construction loans in most instances and there are plenty of banks, hard money lenders etc. who offer construction financing on distressed buildings.

Yes, you bring home more each month but when you compare the amount you bring home versus how much you had to put in, the returns are typically significantly lower on your money when you pay all cash.

What we typically do during this time of year on our owner occupied non performing loans is not perform any legal actions between thanksgiving and christmas. 

How I handle them is typically not well because I am not as swift as I should be - this is when having a PM is so valuable.Whats your goals/vision for 2025 Fed?
