HARD MONEY BANKERS COMMENTS:
The pros are:
The lender will have good collateral on an investment property at a low LTV.  The Borrowers have cash which they use for their investments. They need this cash out for additional funds to renovate the building.
The cons are:
The borrower’s exit strategy of refinancing could take longer than expected in this market.
