Hi everyone,
I have a house that is in rehab right now. I am following BRRRR strategy. I have talked to a couple of lenders and they offer max. 75% LTV. Do you know any lender that offers 80% LTV for a refinance?

@Hamed Rahimi We have a program that will do 80% cash out for investors with at least 3 deals experience in the last 3 years but rate/cost are leaps and bounds better for 75% cash out. I actually invest in STL myself too. Would love to connect some time.

There are some out there who will still do 80% if the property/FICO qualifies. Like Alex said, you’ll see a difference in terms and rate from 75%. Happy to look into it for you, feel free to connect.

@Hamed Rahimi congratulations on having a home and executing on the BRRRR Method. Now, I need to be straight on this - talking with 2 lenders is not enough. Most of us are speaking with 20...and sometimes over 100 to get what we need. Be aggressive. Do not take "no" for an answer. Keep reaching out to other lenders. There are lenders that lend up to 80%...but can you qualify for those loans? Hard to say until you speak with one that WILL lend up to that LTV.
My recommendation here is usually the same - we need to go local for this. Meaning, local real estate investors. The OTHER investors in your market had to find the same thing you are looking for. Chances are, they already know who to connect you with! We just need to go and meet those investors. Try some local real estate meetup groups. Meetup.com is a good resource for those but some of the groups will also post here on Bigger Pockets Marketplace too. Even facebook might have some good local groups for you. But post locally for this. That’s the best bet.

Thanks Alex for your response. I will give you a call to chat.

Well said Andrew. I will reach out to local banks.

Thanks Brittany. I will call you to ask about your programs.
