Frequently Asked Questions from Rhode Island Clients
What is a bridge loan and why is it ideal for Rhode Island real estate investors?
A bridge loan is a short-term, asset-backed loan designed to provide quick capital, "bridging" the gap between the purchase of a new property and securing long-term financing or selling an existing property. For Rhode Island investors, bridge loans are ideal because they offer speed and flexibility, allowing you to seize opportunities quickly, fund renovations, or complete a purchase when traditional lenders can't act fast enough.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Rhode Island?
We focus on residential investment properties across Rhode Island. This includes single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, and small multi-family apartment buildings with up to 20 units. Our bridge loans are perfect for fix & flip projects, rental property acquisitions, and residential new construction.
How fast can I get funded for a bridge loan in Rhode Island?
We understand the urgency of real estate investing. For qualified Rhode Island residential projects, we can often fund bridge 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 throughout RI.
Do you require an appraisal for Rhode Island properties?
To expedite the bridge loan 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 Rhode Island residential real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster and more efficiently for our investors.
