🔥 Here are a few practical reminders on underwriting and deal structuring:

🏆 Start With the Numbers Know your ARV, rehab estimates, holding costs, and exit plan.If you're holding rental properties, understand your DCR (Debt Coverage Ratio) — most lenders want to see the deal can pay for itself.

📝 Funding Tools to Know:

• 🏘️ EMD (Earnest Money Deposit): Be strategic — don't overextend, but show you're serious.

• 📝 Gap Funding: Useful when you’re close but not quite there on closing day capital.

• ⚒️ Transactional Funding: Ideal for double closes — temporary funding with no credit pull.

• 🔑 Short-Term Private Equity: For higher-cost flips or quick-turn projects, private equity can bridge the gap when traditional lending won’t.

🤝 Double Close vs. AssignmentsIf your spread is significant or you're protecting your position in the deal, a double close makes more sense than an assignment.

🗝️ Seller Financing = OptionsSometimes the best deals come from sellers willing to carry the note. It’s not always about the lowest price — terms matter.

📚 Keep Your Paperwork & Process TightMessy contracts, vague timelines, or unclear communication = red flags. Run your deals like a business.
