Client: 64 years old, semi-retired. Sold his primary residence in 2013 to free up capital to invest in other business and cash flowing properties, has over $100K savings set aside for this purchase.

Loan Amount Request: $243,750 @ 75% LTV

He has virtually no debt and only has few late payments due to business challenges he had in his landscaping business in 2013. 2011 late payments were from business trips oversea.

Property: $325,000 agreed purchase price. Industrial with office and retail front in good location. Subject property is currently vacant but has potential parties interested in renting it out after TI's are completed.

Current market rents/gross lease in this strata varies from $1.50 to $1.70 per square foot. Subject unit is 2434 sq.ft. and should easily debt service. Hold-back or reserve can be requested until intent to lease becomes full contract. Estimate rent of $3500 is what client asking from interested parties.2013 depreciation report is also available.

Challenge: 2013 had no income declared, he lives off of his rental income previously and landscaping business that he had sold off at end of 2012 or early 2013.Other than his lack of income from 2013, he is a great potential client for you…

“Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightment,” Lao Tzu

*Can you negotiate the rates or fees? Hidden fees? (ie. I received 3 different quotes from same lender)

*Sell yourself – I save you time & money on lawyers, property appraisers, environmental appraisers

*Sell access your additional network & 7 days a week + outside banking hours, advisory team

*Has process been explained clearly to the client(s)?

*Why are the fees charged? Acceptance?

*What is the timeline? Consistent on OTP?

*Who does what?

*When and how?
