Frequently Asked Questions from Marquette Clients
What is a private money loan and why is it ideal for Marquette investments?
Private money loans are asset-based loans funded by private individuals or companies, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the Marquette investment market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing. This makes them perfect for fix & flip, residential rehab, bridge, or small multi-family projects where quick access to capital can make or break a deal.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Marquette?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Marquette 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 securing competitive deals, especially for properties needing quick renovation or acquisition.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Marquette and the U.P.?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Marquette and the Upper Peninsula, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), and small apartment buildings (up to 20 units). Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, making it easier for investors to secure financing for their next residential venture.
Do you require an appraisal for Marquette properties?
To expedite the 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 Marquette real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster and more efficiently for residential investment properties.
