Frequently Asked Questions
Hard money loans, unlike traditional bank loans, hinge on the property’s value used as collateral, rather than solely on your financial status. Although these loans often come with higher interest rates, they hold significant appeal for real estate investors. This is because they boast faster closing times, offer flexible terms, and can be repaid swiftly to minimize expenses, thereby facilitating quicker business expansion.
Below are some additional advantages associated with hard money loans:
Swift Access to Capital: Hard money loans provide quick access to capital, enabling investors to seize opportunities promptly.
Flexible Terms: These loans come with a range of repayment schedules and durations, allowing borrowers to tailor the terms to their specific needs.
High Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio: Depending on the property’s value and renovation budget, hard money loans can finance up to 90% of the project, providing substantial funding.
Potential for Enhanced Benefits: Building a relationship with the same lender may lead to additional advantages, such as reduced origination fees and interest rates, making it even more attractive for long-term investors.”
Appraisals vary on your financing needs. We do not require appraisals on bridge loans, but we do require them for rental loans.
We provide short term financing, bridge loans, and rental property loans.
Fix & Flip Programs can close in as little as 7 days. Permanent loan programs can take as few as 15 days and up to 45 days. For an accurate timeline based on your specific needs contact us directly.
