    Default $1.2m LOC

    I just ran across a funding option that is very interesting. I went through the process, and have a LOC now of 1.2m at 9%.

    I have not exercised the line, and am looking at different options.
    What would you guys do?

    Run the numbers. Assuming accurate and conservative projections on the property you are interested in pursuing, does the income not only cover the 9% but give you a decent return on whatever you are putting up?

    I usually like to see a minimum of 8% return on my investment, and in this market I think 12% is more reasonable.

    Oh, is that line locked at 9%. If it's variable, or adjusts in the future, personally I wouldn't use it for anything that I couldn't pay off completely in 12 months.

    Oh, ps. Watch out for predators who want a piece of that. Since you have a LOC that you can draw on at will, you don't have the bank protecting you with their safeguards with a conventional loan.
