    🏠 Case Study: When a Higher Appraisal Means More Leverage – Hila’s Refinance Win in Georgia

    📌 Loan #1363 – Refinance with Cash Out | Georgia | Lender #2490
    💰 Property Value: $195,000 | 🧾 Requested Loan Amount: $117,000

    In real estate investing, surprises aren’t always bad — especially when they come in the form of a higher-than-expected appraisal. Hila’s refinance journey is the perfect example of how a good valuation can unlock greater cash-out potential.

    📖 Background

    Hila started her refinance with Nadlan Capital Group, estimating her property’s value around $180,000 and requesting a 65% LTV, which would have resulted in a $117,000 loan.

    📈 The Positive Twist: Strong Appraisal Report

    The appraisal came back with a property value of $195,000, which shifted her originally planned 65% LTV loan into a 60% LTV loan — leaving room to borrow more if desired.

    📝 Action Taken: Request for Full 65% LTV

    Realizing the opportunity, Hila and her advisor requested an increase in the loan amount to reflect 65% LTV, which equates to a new loan amount of $126,750.

    🏦 Lender’s Response: Higher LTV Approved (with Rate Bump)

    📩 On May 7, 2025, Denver from Nadlan Capital Group shared:

    “Hi @Sholomi – Nadlan Capital Group, the lender confirms that they can go up to 65% LTV and the rates would increase by approx 20 bps. Please do let me know if you would wish to proceed with 65% LTV?”

    This gave Hila the green light to unlock more capital — with a minor tradeoff in rate.

    📊 Final Loan Summary (as of May 7, 2025)

    • 🏦 Loan Amount (current): $117,000

    • 💡 Potential Loan Amount at 65% LTV: $126,750

    • 🏠 Appraised Value: $195,000

    • 📅 Loan Product: 30-Year Fixed

    • 📉 Interest Rate: 6.604% (subject to change by 5/14/2025)

    • 💵 Monthly PITIA Payment: $1,100.62

    • 🧾 Recourse: Full to borrower and guarantor

    📌 Key Takeaways

    🔹 Strong appraisals can improve your loan strategy — always ask for re-evaluation if values shift.
    🔹 LTV flexibility isn’t automatic — you must proactively request updated terms.
    🔹 More leverage = slightly higher rate, but also greater liquidity.
    🔹 Rapid borrower response and strong broker support keep deals on track.

    Conclusion

    This deal shows how important appraisal timing and borrower flexibility are in DSCR financing. Thanks to a favorable appraisal and decisive action, Hila now has the option to pull more capital from her property without starting over — a true win.
