Frequently Asked Questions from Kelso Clients
What is a private money loan and why is it ideal for Kelso residential investors?
Private money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the Kelso residential market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing. This makes them perfect for fix & flip, buy & hold rehab, or new construction projects (1-4 units, small multi-family) where quick access to capital is crucial to secure a good deal.
How fast can I get funded for a property in Kelso?
We prioritize efficiency for our Kelso clients. For qualified residential projects, we can often fund loans in as little as 5-7 business days, with most loans closing within 7-14 business days. This speed is a significant advantage for securing competitive deals and moving quickly on local investment opportunities.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Kelso?
We lend on a variety of residential investment properties across Kelso and Cowlitz County. Our focus is on single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, and small multi-family properties up to 20 units. We're interested in the asset's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit score.
Do you require a traditional appraisal for Kelso properties?
To expedite the private money loan process, 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 Kelso and Cowlitz County real estate market. This allows us to make quick lending decisions without the delays of a full, traditional appraisal.
