Frequently Asked Questions from Baltimore Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Baltimore real estate?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, offering speed and flexibility that traditional banks cannot match. They are ideal for the Baltimore market because they enable investors to quickly capitalize on fix & flip opportunities, finance residential new construction, or bridge gaps in financing for properties that might not fit conventional lending criteria due to their condition or location within revitalization zones.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Baltimore?
We prioritize efficiency for Baltimore investors. For qualified residential 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 critical for securing competitive deals and reacting quickly to market opportunities, especially for desirable rowhouses or small multi-family properties.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Baltimore?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Baltimore, including single-family homes (especially rowhouses), multi-unit residential (2-4 units), and small apartment buildings (up to 20 units). Our focus is on the property's potential value and the project's profitability, making us a great partner for properties in need of renovation or repositioning, even if they don't qualify for traditional financing.
Do you require an appraisal for Baltimore residential properties?
To expedite the process for our Baltimore clients, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable sales and our extensive experience in the Baltimore real estate market. This approach helps us make quick lending decisions and close faster than relying solely on a full, traditional appraisal.
