Frequently Asked Questions from Kelso Bridge Loan Clients
What is a bridge loan and why is it ideal for Kelso residential investors?
A bridge loan is a short-term, secured loan used to "bridge" the gap between existing financing and new financing, or to facilitate a quick acquisition. For Kelso residential investors, bridge loans are ideal for rapid property acquisitions, covering renovation costs for a fix & flip before sale, or when you need to close on a new property before your existing one sells. They offer speed and flexibility where traditional lenders fall short.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Kelso?
We prioritize efficiency for our Kelso bridge loan clients. For qualified 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 competitive acquisitions and ensuring your investment timeline stays on track.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Kelso?
We focus exclusively on residential investment properties in Kelso and Cowlitz County. This includes single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes (1-4 units), and small multi-family apartment buildings (up to 20 units). Our lending decisions are primarily based on the property's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Kelso bridge loans?
To expedite the bridge loan process for Kelso properties, 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 Cowlitz County real estate market. This allows us to make quick lending decisions without waiting for a lengthy, traditional appraisal process, which is essential for bridge financing.
