Morby Method Lender

You already know how the Morby Method works. What you need is the right Stack Method lender. Levine Capital works with every counterparty in the transaction: private lenders who need a reliable DSCR takeout, transactional lenders who need a partner, transaction coordinators who need a lender that speaks this language, and the borrowers themselves. Backed by institutional capital providers with correspondent and wholesale channels, we tailor the loan so it works with all parties involved.

Morby Method deal structure showing how seller financing blends with institutional loans

Watch the Gator walkthrough near the top of the page

This walkthrough explains how Levine Capital helps structure seller-financed deals using the Morby Method, without forcing visitors into an external branded video callout.

What Is the Morby Method?

The Morby Method is when a seller offers seller financing and the seller’s proceeds are used to cover the down payment for the loan. A transactional lender is also involved, blending creative finance with institutional capital so you can acquire properties with little to no money out of pocket.

01

Fix & Flip

Ideal for value-add deals needing rehab with competitive rates and fast funding.

02

DSCR Rental

Perfect for long-term rental investments with income-based qualification.

03

Ground Up

Flexible, competitive terms on 1-4 unit new construction homes.

04

Bridge Loan

Designed for rent-ready properties requiring minimal renovations.

How It Works

The most efficient path is to pre-qualify for a Morby Method deal. We need to know your whole scenario — you as a borrower. Here’s our step-by-step process.

01

Bring Us Your Deal

Go find the deal. Go find the problem — like Pace says — then figure it out. The seller is offering seller financing, you have terms negotiated. Now you need a creative DSCR lender to put it all together.

02

We Run the Numbers

First, we need to see if the numbers work. You need to have terms already negotiated with the seller. We can pre-screen deals all day, but we want to run the numbers and understand you as a borrower — your liquidity, credit, and experience.

03

We Structure the Deal

From there, we structure it. Do we need a transactional loan to fund the down payment? Do we need to bring in a liquidity partner? Do you need a top-tier transaction coordinator? We can help with that too. We even have people who can help negotiate the deal if needed. We make sure we have the right loan product, the right investor behind the loan, and the right team in place to avoid any surprises down the road.

04

Close with Minimal Capital

Our vetted Top-Tier Transaction Coordinators understand all the nuances and know how to navigate this complicated transaction. We handle the paperwork, coordinate with all parties, and get you to the closing table with minimal or no money out of pocket.

How to Submit Your Deal

Once you understand the structure, the next step is sending us the right information so we can size the deal, confirm the strategy, and move you toward a real quote.

1

Go to the Quick Quote

Choose the loan program — DSCR, Fix & Flip, Ground Up, or Bridge. Tell us about your deal and your target structure.

2

Select Morby Method

Flag the scenario as a seller-financing deal using the Morby Method so we can review the terms and structure it correctly.

3

Receive the Follow-Up Email

After submission, you’ll receive an email prompting you to send documents, confirm details, and keep the file moving quickly.

Backed by Institutional Capital, Structured for Creative Finance

Levine Capital is backed by multiple institutional capital providers, with correspondent and wholesale channels that let us tailor the loan to the scenario. Most lenders force every deal into one program. We do the opposite: we look at the asset, the borrower, the exit, and the capital stack, then place the file with the source whose guidelines actually fit. It is not a one-size-fits-all loan.

That flexibility is exactly what a Morby Method or Stack Method deal requires. When seller financing sits behind institutional debt, the structure has to be underwritten deliberately. We are fluent in that structure, not merely tolerant of it.

EMD Lending

Earnest money deposit funding so you can lock up contracts without draining liquidity. Learn more about earnest money deposit funding.

Gap Funding

Gap funding as a first position lender, structured to close the distance between your capital and the deal. See our gap funding program.

Fix & Flip

Renovation capital sized to the business plan, including heavy value-add, expansions, and conversions that other lenders decline.

DSCR Rental

DSCR-friendly permanent financing for the refinance leg, including rural properties and short-term rentals. Run the numbers with our DSCR calculator.

You Are Not Looking for a Definition. You Are Looking for the Right Lender.

If you found this page, you already understand how the Stack Method works. The question that actually matters is whether the lender on the other side of the transaction understands it too, and whether they can perform when the structure is unusual. That is the part most lenders get wrong.

Levine Capital works with every counterparty in a Morby Method transaction. Private lenders, transactional lenders, transaction coordinators, brokers, and borrowers all come to us for the same reason: we are fluent in this structure and we can tailor the loan so it works for everyone involved.

01

Private Lenders

You need a reliable DSCR takeout lender so your capital comes back on schedule. We underwrite the exit up front and communicate clearly through the process, so the refinance is not a surprise at the end.

02

Transactional Lenders

You need a partner who understands what your position requires and does not need the creative terms explained from scratch. We work alongside transactional lenders and keep the funding leg clean.

03

Transaction Coordinators

You need a lender that already speaks Morby Method so the file does not stall on avoidable questions. Send the scenario early and we will identify the lending path and documentation needs. If you need a transaction coordinator, we have that covered too.

04

Borrowers & Brokers

You need the deal funded, not a lecture. Bring the scenario and we will tell you what is possible, what needs to change, and what the terms look like once our team underwrites it.

Diversified Capital Means More Room to Structure

We are diversified with capital. Levine Capital is backed by multiple institutional capital providers with correspondent and wholesale channels, which means we are not stuck placing every file with one source and one rigid guideline set. When one channel says no, another may say yes with the right structure.

That flexibility shows up in the numbers below. These are not guarantees, and every item here comes with the same honest caveat: it really depends on the scenario.

Credit Into the 500s

Depending on the scenario, we can go into the 500s for credit score on DSCR loans. Credit alone does not end the conversation here. The asset, the exit, and the structure all matter.

Up to 85% on Purchase

We can possibly go up to 85% on the purchase for a DSCR loan. Where a specific file lands depends on the property, the rent, the borrower profile, and how the rest of the stack is built.

Seasoning Handled

Seasoning requirements are one of the most common reasons a creative deal dies elsewhere. We know how to structure around them and we will tell you early what the timeline realistically supports.

Need Something We Are Not Directly Providing?

If you need private lenders, we can help. If you need a transaction coordinator, we have that. If you need earnest money or gap funding as a first position lender, that is in house. We are a one-stop shop that truly understands the Morby Method, which means fewer handoffs, fewer dropped balls, and fewer deals that fall apart because one party did not understand the structure.

Submit It. We Will Underwrite It.

The simplest thing you can do is use the Quick Quote. It takes about five minutes and it gets your scenario in front of a team that already knows what it is looking at.

1
Submit the Loan

Open the Quick Quote and enter the property, the numbers, and your exit.

2
Select Morby Method

There is a dropdown that mentions the Morby Method. Select it so the file routes to the right desk immediately.

3
Our Team Underwrites It

We review the scenario to see whether the loan works, including leverage, seasoning, and how the seller financing sits behind the institutional debt.

4
We Give You the Terms

You get real terms based on the actual structure, not a generic rate sheet. If something needs to change to make it work, we tell you what and why.
