🔑 Real Investor Scenario
An investor in South Florida picked up a single-family property for $250k.
• Rehab Budget: $80k
• ARV: $400k
• Lender covered 80% of the purchase + 100% of the rehab.
• Closing in 10 days.
👉 The key was having the purchase contract, rehab budget, and ARV ready upfront. When those numbers are solid, lenders compete for your deal.
