JF2283: Multifamily Lending 101 Part 3| Syndication School with Theo Hicks
In this Syndication School episode, Theo Hicks explains how to compare the different loan options and factor in different variables that are at play. Loan terms will determine what kind of ROI your multifamily unit will generate for the investors. Factors such as interest rate, debt service, loan term, and the amount of capital you put down will affect the cash flow and the future earnings. It’s also important to remember that some of these factors can benefit you short-term, and some will give you long-term advantages (i.e. having adjustable vs fixed interest rate).
