Frequently Asked Questions from New York City Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for New York City?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the fast-paced New York City market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing, making them perfect for fix & flip, bridge, or new construction projects where time is critical to secure competitive residential deals in a dense urban environment.
How fast can I get funded for a property in New York City?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified New York City 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 and reacting quickly to market opportunities across all NYC boroughs.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in NYC?
We lend on a wide range of residential and mixed-use property types across New York City, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), and mixed-use properties where the primary value is residential. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit history, especially in this high-value market.
Do you require an appraisal for New York City 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 New York City real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster and more efficiently in a market where speed is paramount.
