As a Private Lender we unfortunately take possession of a number of properties where a debtor is unable to meet their interest committments.

It is a requirement of the mortgagee in a MIP sale to ensure they receive a fair and reasonable price.

Yes it makes sense assuming you dont require access to the cash funds.

You could always do say 100K interest only with 100K in the offset and a secondary loan split for the rest.

Ok noted and understood. Not sure you will find any JV partner to come on board with that little skin in the game.

We do a lot of JV deals as investors but far too skinny for us.
