Why Kahului & Maui Investors Choose Waterman Capital

Frequently Asked Questions from Kahului & Maui Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Kahului's residential market?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the fast-paced Kahului residential market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer bureaucratic hurdles than conventional financing. This makes them perfect for residential fix & flip, bridge, or new construction projects where quick access to capital is crucial to secure properties and begin development promptly on Maui.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Kahului?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Kahului 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 invaluable for securing competitive residential deals and reacting quickly to market opportunities across Maui, especially when inventory can be limited.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Kahului?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Kahului and Maui, specifically focusing on single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), and land for new residential construction. Our focus is on the property's value and the project's profitability, not solely on the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Kahului residential properties?
To expedite the process for residential investments, 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 Kahului and broader Maui real estate market. This approach helps us to close faster, allowing you to seize opportunities without waiting for a lengthy, traditional appraisal process.
