Frequently Asked Questions from DC Fix and Flip Clients
What is a fix and flip loan and why is it ideal for the District of Columbia?
Fix and flip loans are short-term, asset-based loans designed specifically for investors who purchase properties, renovate them, and then quickly resell them for a profit. They are ideal for the fast-moving DC market because they offer rapid funding and flexibility, allowing investors to secure properties that need rehabilitation without the delays of traditional bank financing.
How fast can I get funded for a fix and flip property in DC?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified District of Columbia fix and flip 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 essential for competitive bidding and capitalizing on time-sensitive investment opportunities in the capital.
What types of properties do you lend on for fix and flip projects in DC?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across the District of Columbia suitable for fix and flip, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), townhouses, condos, and small multi-family properties (up to 20 units). Our focus is on the property's after-repair value (ARV) and the project's profitability, rather than solely on the borrower's credit score.
Do you require an appraisal for fix and flip properties in DC?
To streamline the process for our DC fix and flip clients, we typically utilize Broker's Price Opinions (BPOs) or conduct our own internal valuations. These are based on recent comparable sales and our extensive experience in the District of Columbia real estate market, allowing us to accelerate the closing process compared to a traditional appraisal.
