@Garrison1Boston @MilwaukeeBonds Incorrect - Every hedge fund on this list has an extremely strong hedge fund in place to protect their downside. It’s why they are all still in business.
@falseanon@rohindhar You can always pay down part of the loan (unless you have a lockout period). I don’t think the goal is to have MORE equity in a deal when things go south, but as little as possible.
@KassonM Your average Value Add Multifamily Cap rate today is 5, people are borrowing 80% IO @ 3%. Math is as follows.
Income 100K
PP: 2mm
Loan: 80% 1.6mm
Mortgage cost: 54K
Cash Required For Deal: 500K
Cash remaining post mortgage: 46K
46/500 = 9.2% cash on cash return.
2mm in a good RE deal with the right sponsor should generate at a minimum 160K tax free dollars a year plus upside. (Assume an 8% pref then a 70/30 split)
2mm in SPY (S&P 500) index would generate 26K per year in taxable income.
Liquidity is costing you 134K per year.
