Frequently Asked Questions from Hilo Fix & Flip Investors
What is a fix and flip loan and why is it ideal for Hilo?
A fix and flip loan is a short-term, asset-based loan specifically designed for investors purchasing properties to renovate and quickly resell for a profit. They are ideal for the Hilo market because they offer speed and flexibility that traditional banks can't match, allowing investors to quickly acquire and rehab properties, meeting the demand for move-in ready homes or attractive vacation rentals on the Big Island.
How fast can I get funded for a fix and flip project in Hilo?
We prioritize efficiency to ensure you don't miss out on opportunities. For qualified Hilo 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 rapid funding is essential for securing competitive residential properties across Hilo and the Big Island.
What types of residential properties do you lend on for Hilo fix and flips?
We primarily focus on residential investment properties in Hilo and surrounding areas. This includes single-family homes (1-4 units), duplexes, and small multi-family properties (up to 20 units). Our lending criteria focus on the property's after-repair value (ARV) and the project's profitability, making us a great partner for diverse residential rehabs.
Do you require an appraisal for Hilo fix and flip properties?
To expedite the funding process for Hilo investors, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations. These are based on recent comparable sales, current market trends, and our extensive experience with Big Island real estate, allowing us to close faster than traditional lenders who require lengthy appraisals.
