delayed financing exception
Hi all, I am refi'ing a new remodelled acquisition with conventional mortgage and I just heard about the limitations of delayed financing exception. It seems like I can only take out as much as the purchase price. The property in question was purchased with cash for 62 and it was just appraised for 114. Obviously, I want to take out as much as possible, but seems like there's not much wiggle room.
One thing that may give it a tiny bit of wiggle room is this section, taken out from Fannie Mae website:

So if I spend 10K or something to buy down points to like 2%... I can finance the points buy down on top of the 62K, as long as it's less than 114*0.75 it should be okay? Can someone who has knowledge in this explain whether my understanding is correct?
