Frequently Asked Questions from Chapel Hill Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Chapel Hill residential investments?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the competitive Chapel Hill residential market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing. This makes them perfect for fix & flip, bridge, or new residential construction projects where securing properties quickly and efficiently is paramount, especially for student housing or family rentals.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Chapel Hill?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Chapel Hill 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 crucial for securing competitive deals and reacting quickly to market opportunities in the vibrant Chapel Hill and Triangle Area.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Chapel Hill?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Chapel Hill and surrounding Orange County. This includes single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), student housing, and properties suitable for renovation or new residential construction. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Chapel Hill properties?
To expedite the process, 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 Chapel Hill real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster and more efficiently for your residential investment.
