May finds a townhouse in the Ridgeway area of Sterling, AK to renovate and sell. Since she does not have enough cash to buy the property outright, she takes a bridge loan from Pretty Perfect Funding Corporation with the following parameters:
a) A $340,000 sales price, b) a 80% loan to value (LTV), c) a 18 month term, d) a 9% interest rate, and e) a 3% origination fee.
May intends to sell the property at the end of the term for $510,000. If she accomplishes her goal, the deal numbers will be as follows:
$510,000 sales price
- $272,000 principle on note (80% LTV)
- $68,000 cash paid at closing (20% on 80% LTV)
- $8,160 origination points (3% of the $272,000 principle amount)
- $36,720 total interest paid (18 months x 9% interest)
-----------------------
= $125,120 gross profit (doesn't include taxes or renovation costs)
