One of our repeat Clients referred, a potential buyer, to us who was interested in buying two of his businesses. He wanted us to help them obtain a loan they needed to purchase his two businesses. 💰💰
This potential buyer Mr. and Mrs. Fagbodun needed $1.2M to purchase the businesses, which included real estate: but, only had $5,000 in cash. The buyer wanted us to not only help them obtain a loan, but create asset protection for the two businesses, they wanted to purchase. 💵
Most Commercial Lenders will provide a 75% LTV of the amount needed for purchase. Needless to say a 75% LTV requires a borrower to produce the remaining 25% in order to complete the purchase, plus additional monies to pay for fees and reports..
Therefore, this particular buyer/borrower was $295K short of meeting that 75%LTV requirement. So, we needed to do what we do... Make it happen!! 👼🙏
After learning that we help businesses achieve asset protection, the borrower also wanted us to provide their two new businesses with asset protection. So, we asked the borrower if he or his wife possessed an IRA. Fortunately, the wife had an IRA which had $60K in it, that could be used. Therefore, we then used and converted the wife's IRA into a corporation, to help towards obtaining the loan, to purchase the two businesses; which would in turn provide both businesses with asset protection.💡
At which time, we enter into negotiations with one of our approved SBA lender partners, by asking them to increase their LTV, on this transaction. They ended up increasing it to 82.5%, which was fortunate, for the borrower. Now, the borrower was $150K away from meeting the criteria to obtain 82.5% of the $1.2M purchase price.
So what did we do next❓
We called the Seller and asked if he would not only be willing to carry-back $150K on the purchase amount, but add-in an additional favor, to make the deal happen. He said to give him a couple of days to think about it and discuss with his wife and he would get back to us.⏰
Well, to our surprise, he got back to us the next day, and said yes he would do it; and not just carry-back $150K but defer the payments on the carry-back for 2 years. The seller granted us our request.😮👍
Now, with the $60K from the IRA and the $150K carry-back from the seller, for a total of $210K, our SBA lender partner, agreed to the arrangement and granted a loan in the amount of $990K to transact the purchase of both businesses.
YES‼️👍
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED‼️… And we were very happy for our client, the Fagboduns, to have helped them achieve their goal, successfully.🤩
