Frequently Asked Questions from Portland Residential Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Portland real estate?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans funded by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the dynamic Portland residential 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 deals on homes and small apartment buildings.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Portland?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified Portland 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 and reacting quickly to market opportunities in the Portland Metro Area.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Portland?
We primarily lend on a wide range of residential property types across Portland, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), and small apartment buildings (up to 20 units). We also fund land acquisition 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 Portland residential 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 Portland real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster for Portland properties.
