I have zero authority to speak on the subject, but if I was in your shoes I would keep looking. Quality, quality, quality. I would rather have a few headaches on the front end trying to find good tenants, than deal with bad tenants on the back end. 

Thank you @John Leavelle for the additional information.  I really appreciate it!

Thank you for the confirmation of the Refi should be greater than or equal to the amount of the private lender loan! 

First off, I think this question fits into this category.........

I watched the webinar Brandon Turner did on Success Using the "BRRRR" Strategy. Great and informative webinar!!

After the webinar I started to really analyze a handful of properties using the BRRRR Calculator on the site and I got hung up on something. I decided to go watch Dancing with the Stars instead of solving the issue, but there was no Dancing with the Stars tonight so here I am.

Brandon ran a scenario where the listing price of a house was $49,000, estimated repair costs of $20,000.  Got a loan from a private money lender for $70,000.  This number makes complete sense to me.

The ARV of the house was $95,000 and the Refi Loan amount Brandon put in was $65,000 which is roughly 70% of the ARV. Got that and makes sense once again.

Here is what doesn't make sense to me. The private money lender loan was $70,000 and the Refi loan was $65,000. Shouldn't the Refi loan cover the cost of the private loan plus interest and points?  Does this point matter in the big picture, and you just pay the extra $5,000 out of your pocket and move on? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry but I am confused.  This house is listed as Pending on Redfin and the sales price is 465k.
