Personal Loan or HML for BRRRRR

Hi BP! I am looking at a few BRRRRR properties that would cost $65-75k to acquire and rehab. If I only have $40k cash available, would you recommend a personal loan or line of credit from a local credit union? Or secure a HML for the remainder needed? Thanks!

Get the cash wherever you can get the best terms for your situation and the lowest cost of financing:

  • How many points get charged up front?
  • What is the interest rate?
  • What are the payments? (Interest only, or amortized?)
  • What is the term of the loan? (6 months, 12 months, 5 years?) 

Hard money is usually the most expensive option, but it fills a void when other types of financing are unavailable.
