What's the difference between hard money and private money for Batavia deals?

Hard money typically means institutional non-QM lenders (Kiavi, Lima One, Renovo, etc.) with standardized terms — faster origination, more transparent pricing, broader product menus. Private money typically means individual lenders, smaller funds, or family offices with more flexible underwriting, sometimes better rates for established borrowers, but more relationship-dependent. Both regularly fund Batavia deals.

How much cash do I need to bring to close a new construction loan in Batavia?

Plan for 10–25% of purchase price plus 1–3 points in origination fees plus closing costs. For a typical Batavia deal at the $425K median, expect cash-to-close of roughly $64K on a leveraged structure. Lenders also typically want to see 3–6 months of rehab carry and reserves liquid.

Will Cook County property taxes affect my Batavia new construction math?

Yes — materially. Cook County classifies investor properties at higher assessment ratios than owner-occupied, which can push effective tax rates 2–3 percentage points higher. For a property with ARV of $515K in Batavia, expect approximately $13K in annual property tax under investor classification (before appeals or exemptions). Build this into your underwriting.

Can an LLC borrow investor financing for Batavia property?

Yes — most hard money and private money loans require LLC vesting because they're structured as business-purpose loans (exempt from consumer mortgage regulations). Single-member or multi-member LLCs both work. The personal guarantee from the LLC principal(s) typically backs the loan.
