Frequently Asked Questions from Princeton Clients
What is a hard money loan and why is it ideal for Princeton residential investments?
Hard money loans are asset-based loans provided by private investors, not traditional banks. They are ideal for the Princeton residential market because they offer unparalleled speed and flexibility. This is crucial for investors looking to quickly acquire a single-family home for a fix & flip, finance a new residential build, or bridge the gap for a small multi-family property where conventional loans are too slow or rigid.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Princeton?
We prioritize efficiency for our Princeton clients. 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 securing desirable properties in Princeton's competitive housing market, whether it's a 1-4 unit property or a small multi-family building.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Princeton and Central NJ?
We lend exclusively on residential investment properties in the Princeton area. This includes single-family homes (1-unit), small multi-unit residential properties (2-4 units), and small multi-family apartment buildings up to 20 units. We also finance land acquisition for residential new construction and the renovation of historic properties. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, not solely the borrower's credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Princeton residential properties?
To expedite the funding process for our Princeton clients, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable residential sales and our extensive experience in the Central New Jersey real estate market. This approach allows us to close faster than traditional lenders who rely on lengthy, standard appraisals, especially beneficial for quick-turnaround residential deals.
