Frequently Asked Questions from NYC Residential Clients
What is a private money loan and why is it ideal for NYC residential investors?
Private money loans are asset-based loans provided by private individuals or companies, not conventional banks. They are perfectly suited for the fast-paced NYC residential market because they prioritize quick funding, flexible terms, and fewer bureaucratic hurdles than traditional financing. This makes them ideal for time-sensitive fix & flip projects, bridge financing for residential acquisitions, or small multi-family renovations where speed is critical to capitalize on opportunities.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in NYC?
We understand the competitive nature of NYC's residential market. For qualified projects, we can often fund loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most residential loans closing within 7-10 business days. This rapid turnaround is essential for securing deals and reacting quickly to market shifts, whether you're investing in a Brooklyn brownstone or a Queens multi-family.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in NYC?
We lend on a broad spectrum of residential property types across all NYC boroughs. Our focus includes single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family residences, small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), condos, townhouses, and brownstones. We primarily assess the property's value and the project's profitability, offering solutions beyond what conventional lenders can.
Do you require a traditional appraisal for NYC residential properties?
To maintain our speed and efficiency, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable sales and our deep expertise in the specific NYC residential sub-markets. This allows us to expedite the underwriting process significantly compared to waiting for a full, traditional appraisal, helping you close faster on your investment.
