What you guys said makes sense, it is better to be transparent.

They are just playing marketing games.

Deals are a number game, keep grinding and you will close more deals $$.

@Forrest Williams End-game I want to BRRRR to infinity... but to get the engine started I was thinking of flipping first...thank you for those comments!!!!

You must understand the rules of the game you are playing if you want to win. 

My friend/advisor with more experience says I am being a cheap knucklehead and that the $20k is not relative when you factor the forced appreciation and income/valuation of the improved asset(proforma), but, I think it is math and $20k is always relative and I have my criteria(4.5cap) and was very transparent about it from when I first submitted the original accepted offer, and my DD uncovered several hidden deficiencies that make the credit necessary to maintain my original underwriting numbers and even though I understand my friends rationale, I don't want to give in any more slack(adjusted to 4.4cap), than I already have...What do you experienced multi family acquisition people think?

Be transparent about it but also don't make it sound like a it's big deal that you may assign this to a fellow investor.

While not all are willing to cover the land costs (that is considered the borrower's "skin in the game") some can help cover the land purchase if the deal falls within their guidelines.

Developing a funnel has been the most challenging part of this game in good times and hard times.

I'm a total rookie obviously and I need a game plan here.
