Frequently Asked Questions from Marathon Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Marathon residential investments?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans provided by private lenders, designed for speed and flexibility. They are ideal for Marathon's residential investment market because they enable investors to close quickly on competitive properties, fund extensive rehabs, or acquire vacation rental units that might not fit strict traditional lending criteria due to their nature or location in the Keys.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Marathon?
We prioritize efficiency for our Marathon investors. 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 rapid turnaround is essential for securing attractive deals, especially for properties suitable for vacation rentals or quick renovation projects.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Marathon?
We lend on a wide range of residential investment properties across Marathon, including single-family homes, duplexes, 3-4 unit multi-family properties, and small apartment buildings up to 20 units. Our focus is on the property's potential value, the project's profitability, and suitability for the Marathon market, including properties for long-term rentals or high-yield vacation rentals.
Do you require an appraisal for Marathon residential properties?
To expedite the funding process, we often utilize Broker's Price Opinions (BPOs) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable sales and our extensive experience in the Marathon real estate market. This allows us to move much faster than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal, which is beneficial for time-sensitive residential deals in the Keys.
