I can probably do much better if you want me to look at it.

Better option than WBL:

Broker brings me a file with a WBL offer.

New York Italian restaurant
$1.2M hard money loan that balloons in February, 23
585 Fico

He needs:

$1,200,000 to pay off hard money loan
$250,000 for sales tax
$150,000 real estate tax
$30,000 credit cards
$75,000 cash out
$250,000 inventory (fresh seafood, etc)

Total $1.955M

WBL offer:
$2M
24 months
24% Interest
$38,611 a month payment
Guaranteed interest $925,667
3% broker fee

My loan offer LOI:
$2.1M
NoDoc loan - no documentation required
12 months but could extent to 18 - 24 months after underwriting
or additional 12 months renewal at 1% cost.
10.99% Interest Only - determined at closing
6 months prepay penalty
12 month payment reserve - no payments for 12 months.
3% broker fee

The exit strategy is to get him into a SBA 7A for his business and a 30 year commercial property loan to take this loan out within 12 - 24 months.

His finances support both of these long term and we need to work together to make it happen.

Yeah he may need a larger loan amount. Or stay with a payment plan on the tax debt. It's up to 60% LTV and the appraisal will determine what we end up with after underwriting review.
