Frequently Asked Questions from Melrose Park Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Melrose Park residential investments?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans provided by private investors, not traditional banks.

This makes them perfect for fix & flip, buy & hold, bridge, or residential new construction projects where time is critical to capitalize on investment opportunities in the area.

We prioritize efficiency to meet the demands of residential investors. For qualified Melrose Park 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 competitive properties and advancing your investment plans in Western Cook County.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Melrose Park?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Melrose Park and surrounding areas. This includes single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, and small apartment buildings up to 20 units. We also consider mixed-use properties where the primary component is residential. Our focus is on the asset's potential value and the project's profitability, making it easier for residential investors to secure funding.
Do you require an appraisal for Melrose Park residential properties?
To expedite the lending process for our Melrose Park clients, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own thorough internal valuations.
