Hello folks in Lending forum,looking to try and see about potential lending partners who can write large checks (7 figures) and are looking for very high yield (much higher vs private lending rates) and higher than HML rates.only need lending for 4-6months until large line of credit gets granted and we pay off the short term note.ping me if worth a conversation or have ideas...this seems perfect for a family office just wanting to place dry powder for 4-6mos while they are looking for other deal flow but trying see about other options out there as well.thanks in advance.

This will let you know if they understand the scope of work that needs to be done to fix up the property to the City inspector building code/standards. 

Regarding your concerns of the going rate over 5% and 5 year terms,  since a standard mortgage is 7% right now, I would expect 7-8% minimum for a seller financed rate. 

So check with your local banks would be a good start IMO.Good luck!

HELOCs especially. check with your local bank/ CU before exploring guys like Rocket.

If you are interested in screening the porch, you can get aluminum screening which is more resistant to box cutters and switch blades then the standard fiberglass cheapy screens if you want.
