You can always look at a portfolio loan product that is more asset based they will only look at the income of the property itself.

If that's not you then I would suggest that overkilling the presentation on a used product, you may be actually trying to pull a "slight of photo" move to draw attention away from something undesirable. 

I find myself sourcing info from multiple websites (Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Trulia) but do not have a good direction/process to get to my final product of a well thought out ARV.Thanks for your help as always,Andrew

Qualification StandardsApplicants must meet minimum screening standards to be considered: Applicant must have current photo identification and a valid social security number. Applicant's monthly household income must exceed three times the rent.

I use both as a RE investor between commercial and residential as both can be used on 1-4 unit properties (non owner/investment occupancy).The pro's of commercial/portfolio financing from local credit unions and community banks are that you can:- talk to a local banker/lender who is interested in building a relationship with you over time and is flexible to make a loan as long as its financially prudent and you show a track record- ability to build a track record with- less documentation scrutiny than a fannie/freddie conventional loan which is more ridged because it needs to be sold to the secondary market so all boxes must be checked to do so (otherwise the loan is unsellable or undeliverable)- is cashflow based via debt coverage ratio or DCR method of qualification (Net operating income / debt service) - can fund to LLC's, entities, and businesses with personal guarantee (PG) usually- can do unique loans like cross collateral or blanket notes across an entire portfolio, can do rehab/construction + permanent financing into one (one time close products), can do soft liens and releasable upon progress on your projects so you can leverage equity with temporarily encumbrances, unique disbursements on credit facilities,etc Hope that helped compare the cash out options.

I guess my point is - I think a lot of businesses are prepared for an economic slowdown, but who is prepared for a complete stop of all production?

However, you are being placed in a difficult position and the contract is valid so you just want to close the deal.

There's power in knowledge.As far as your analysis:Closing costs will likely be 2X this on a commercial property.I'd plan for more in initial repairs, especially if the last unit isn't finished.Your mortgage expectations aren't in line with most commercial products.
