Hi all, what is the typical post close liquidity % a lender would look for in a deal where the real estate is 75% real estate and 25% business? My understanding is since the RE is a hard asset there are less risks and so I would expect there to be less of a need for liquidity.

But can the business support the cash flow of the total entity? (e.g. the business cash flow has to pay the mortgage and the biz acquisition). Yes, there is an asset to go after, but that takes lots of time and expenses if the biz fails and they have to then sell it. So to answer your question, there still needs to be liquidity to support the biz if there is a decline in cash flow.

Agree with Jeff, the difficulty here may be that if we have primarily RE, the business still needs to be able to support the cash flow of both.
