I talked it over with a more experienced investor and finally pulled the trigger...Result?

I try to use lenders Ive utilized in the past for simplicity, and relationship.My past loans have been in the same range your mentioning; but perhaps this exact loan (Amount, LTV, Multifamily, OOS, Investment, Cash out) triggers an industry standard higher origination costs???

Make sure you use the city or cities you will be in this will trigger investors keywords and bring it to their attention. 

The first lien holder would probably then foreclose himself, as your foreclosing would trigger a default provision of the mortgage or deed of trust.

It's entirely possible that some event occurred that triggered the termination of the trust.

It’s common when a municipality runs water lines that owner’s may be required to hook up at some point, a property transfer being a trigger.  

Moving the property into a land trust does not trigger the same flags (Due on Sale Clause) as does a transfer directly into an LLC, so it gives you much more flexibility.

And the correction will be triggered by outside forces affecting real estate (corporate debt, student loan debt, international policies that affect outside investors, trade wars, etc).
