Frequently Asked Questions from Nantucket Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Nantucket?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans provided by private lenders, not traditional banks. They are exceptionally well-suited for the Nantucket market due to their speed and flexibility. Given the island's high property values, limited inventory, and often time-sensitive transactions (especially for seasonal rentals or competitive bids), hard money provides the agility to secure properties for fix & flip, new construction, or bridge financing where conventional loans would be too slow.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Nantucket?
We prioritize efficiency to match Nantucket's fast-paced market. 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 investors looking to capitalize on urgent opportunities or beat out competition on the island.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Nantucket?
We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Nantucket, including single-family homes, 1-4 unit multi-family properties, small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), historic properties needing renovation, and land designated for residential development. Our focus is on the property's value and the project's profitability, making us flexible for unique island investments.
Do you require an appraisal for Nantucket properties?
To expedite the process and avoid delays, 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 unique Nantucket real estate market. This approach allows us to make quicker lending decisions compared to waiting for a full, traditional appraisal, which can be challenging and time-consuming on the island.
