Adding PML to lien after closing

Laurie F.
Posted

My HML says I can only add my PML to second position on the lien after closing. How would I go about this? Potential snags in the plan? Thanks!

Why do you have HML and PML on the same deal? Are you not putting in any of your own funds?


I suspect this is what is called gap funding.  ( the second on HML) is commonly referred to as gap funding and the person making the loan is a gap funder.

To have this amount of leverage on a property, especially in light of a shaky economic future, seems like a bad recipe to me.
