The stakes

A deal rarely dies from a bad property. It dies from a sloppy file — a lender who can’t find the answer fast assumes the worst and passes, or sits on it. The slow maybe is the most expensive outcome in this business, because it ties up your deal while a better-packaged borrower closes ahead of you.

What’s inside

Every page earns its place.

The five sponsor checks

What a lender looks at before they ever open the property file.

The numbers that must reconcile

Scope, ARV, and the LTC/ARV leverage math that sizes every private loan.

DSCR for rentals & cash-out

What a long-term hold has to clear before the question even gets asked.

The exit question

The one every file answers on page one — flip sale or refinance take-out.

The document list

What turns a maybe into a yes, and exactly what stalls a file.

The reframe

Why a fast no is a gift, not a loss — and how to package for it.

Who it’s for

For the broker, sponsor, or investor who wants a real answer.

Built for anyone packaging business-purpose deals — flips, refinances, cash-out refinances, long-term holds — who is done with polite stalls and wants a straight yes or no in days. Not owner-occupied. Not consumer. Investor debt only.

Who’s behind it

Iron Rock and Alex Buriak. The operator who originated, underwrote, and built private lending from the inside — more than a decade of it — before building the AI that now runs all three seats of a deal. This checklist is the front edge of the same method, handed to you free.
