HARD MONEY BANKERS COMMENTS:
The pros are:
The lender will have good collateral on an investment property in a great area of DC. The borrowers have strong credit, good assets and experience. The borrowers will be contributing about $20K+ into this refinance at closing plus continuing construction work out of pocket. The borrowers contributed $300K to the purchase of this property one year ago.
The cons are:
The borrower’s exit strategy of selling could take longer than expected in this market.
