Frequently Asked Questions from Aspen Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Aspen?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are exceptionally suited for the high-value and competitive Aspen market, offering the speed, flexibility, and streamlined process that traditional lenders cannot match. This makes them perfect for acquiring luxury properties, financing residential new construction, or undertaking significant rehabs where timely capital is essential to capture premium opportunities.
How fast can I get funded for a property in Aspen?
We prioritize rapid funding. For qualified Aspen projects, we can often fund loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. This speed is paramount for securing high-demand luxury properties and reacting swiftly to exclusive investment opportunities in the Roaring Fork Valley.
What types of properties do you lend on in Aspen?
We focus on residential investment properties throughout Aspen and the surrounding area. This includes luxury single-family homes, high-end condos and townhomes, and small multi-family properties (up to 20 units) for rental income or employee housing, as well as land for residential development. Our emphasis is on the property's potential and the project's viability, not solely on the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Aspen properties?
To expedite funding for high-value Aspen properties, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own thorough internal valuations. These are based on recent comparable luxury sales and our deep understanding of the Aspen real estate market, allowing us to move much faster than a traditional appraisal process, which is often crucial in securing exclusive deals.
