Real deal example. Commercial acquisition in Florida. Purchase price: $13 MILLION. 🏢💸 The buyer had everything lined up… except the $130,000 earnest money. So we showed up with it. 💪 💵 Upfront fee: 5% ... collected upfront. 📈 And if it had closed? Another 20% waiting at the closing table! Unfortunately, this one didn't close. 😬 Died in due diligence, and EMD came right back. But the upfront fee paid the cost of capital and operations, so all was good. We need to swing to get a hit. Who's bringing us the next one ... the one that will close? 👀 😉

If we’re bringing a Morby Method borrower to RQF for TF and they don’t already have a primary lender, I’m guessing that using a DSCR (long-term hold) or Hard Money (fix-and-flip) on the RQF site would likely make the whole transaction go much smoother (since those are mortgage lenders that RQF is already used to working with)?

I emailed this to you Paul, but I thought it could be helpful for all in here. Had a quick question for you on the Echo v. The Stack. I know the basic difference is the echo the proceeds come directly from the seller and the stack the money is brought in. I have two questions: 1. What is the key determining factor in why would an investor use the Echo instead of the Stack and vice versa? 2. Specifically on the stack I have the following scenario: A. Client has a home worth $220,000, which is also the purchase price. B. He owes $178,000 C. Lender is only willing to lend the client $125,000, BUT the lender is open to 100 CLTV. Question: In this scenario, is it "possible" to run the stack play if the seller holds a $95,000 note (the difference between the purchase price and loan amount, plus closing costs), on this particular scenario? Please advise on this.

👋 New Member Intro Jeff Hollyhand Tuscaloosa, AL How long have you been involved in real estate or funding? I’ve tried a lot of different things in real estate over the past 25 years but embarrassingly, I never stuck with any of them. They were more like side gigs that I was dabbling in (as I worked my full-time career as a Firefighter). Now that I am retired, I hope to find one thing that fits my personality and focus on it. One thing you’re excited to learn or improve: How the escrow agreement between the lender/funder and the escrow company is actually drafted and fully secured (before funds are wired). I know that’s really specific, but it’s what jumped in my head as I was thinking about this question. Favorite non-work hobby: Keeps changing over the years. Fun one: Early bird or night owl That also keeps changing. Lately night owl 🌙 Glad to be here and ready to dig into the training! 😀
