Frequently Asked Questions from Felton Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Felton, CA residential investments?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the Felton residential market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing, making them perfect for fix & flip, bridge, or new construction projects where time is critical to secure competitive deals on 1-4 unit homes or small multi-family properties.
How fast can I get funded for a property in Felton?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Felton 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 Santa Cruz Mountains area.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Felton?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Felton and Santa Cruz County, including single-family homes (1 unit), duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, and small multi-unit residential buildings (up to 20 units). We also consider land for new residential construction. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, making it easier for investors to secure financing.
Do you require an appraisal for Felton properties?
To expedite the process for Felton projects, 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 Santa Cruz County real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This approach helps us close loans faster, which is a key advantage for investors.
