Frequently Asked Questions from Pahoa Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Pahoa, HI?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the developing Pahoa market because they offer speed, flexibility, and fewer hurdles than conventional financing, making them perfect for residential fix & flip, bridge, or new construction projects where timely access to capital is critical for securing deals in areas like the Puna District.
How fast can I get funded for a property in Pahoa?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Pahoa 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 on the Big Island.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Pahoa?
We lend on a wide range of property types across Pahoa and the Big Island, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), and small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), as well as land for new residential construction. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Pahoa 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 Pahoa and Big Island real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster.
