@Devonte Blackmon  Welcome to BP! 

I've applied in the past with HML, and in my experience they wanted to see sufficient cash reserves in order to finish the project, in case it went over budget. Experience at rehabs and the ultimate exit strategy (sell, refinance) were also important. They ran credit on me but didn't say how much of a factor it was.

Hope that helps,

Tom
