Frequently Asked Questions from Chapel Hill Investors
What is a bridge loan and why is it ideal for Chapel Hill investors?
A bridge loan is a short-term, asset-based loan designed to "bridge" a financing gap between an immediate need for capital and the availability of longer-term financing. For Chapel Hill investors, it's perfect for quickly acquiring an investment property (e.g., student rental, fix & flip) before permanent financing is secured, or to close on a new purchase while your current property is still selling. It offers the speed and flexibility crucial in a competitive market like Chapel Hill.
How fast can I get funded for an investment property in Chapel Hill?
We understand the need for speed in real estate. For qualified Chapel Hill residential investment properties, we can often fund bridge loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. This allows you to seize opportunities quickly, whether it's a new acquisition or a critical renovation project.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Chapel Hill?
We specialize in bridge loans for a wide range of residential investment properties across Chapel Hill, including single-family homes, duplexes, townhouses, and small multi-family properties up to 20 units.
