BRRRR - ReFi Cash Out
Hi I just purchased a duplex from a wholesaler with cash and am redoing one side right now and I want to cash out refinance. I am having trouble with someone who would do the deal with me, I have excellent credit, a good salary, just curious if anyone has a bank or credit union or work with. My understanding is my max cashout refinance is 75% from a traditional bank. Any suggestions would be great.

Hmm, sorry about the format there. To continue...
3. If you are still renovating the property a Fannie/Freddie loan will require all the renovation work to be completed before it can close.
4. I wrote a pretty lengthy article on some of these restrictions and how to properly structure the deal HERE
5. If you think a Fannie/Freddie loan is not the right loan for you to get right now then a smaller, local bank close to the property location might be the right solution. I would post in that State Forum, here on Bigger Pockets, "Looking for bank near X city" and see if some locals might give some good advice.
I hope this wasn't too much information (and please forgive me on the formatting) but feel free to tag me with any questions.
Thanks!
