Frequently Asked Questions from Tampa Clients
What is a private money loan and why is it ideal for residential investments in Tampa?
Private money loans are asset-backed financing provided by private lenders (like Waterman Capital), offering a vital alternative to traditional banks. They are ideal for Tampa's active residential investment market because they provide speed, flexibility, and streamlined underwriting – perfect for securing competitive fix & flip, new construction, or small multi-family projects where quick access to capital is crucial.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Tampa?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified residential projects in Tampa, 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 essential for capitalizing on fast-moving residential opportunities throughout the Tampa Bay area.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Tampa?
We lend on a wide range of residential investment properties across Tampa, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), small multi-family buildings (up to 20 units), and residential land for new construction. Our focus is on the property's investment potential and project profitability, not just the borrower's personal credit history.
Do you require an appraisal for Tampa residential properties?
To expedite the process, especially for residential investments, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations. This is based on recent comparable sales and our extensive experience in the Tampa residential real estate market, allowing us to make quick lending decisions without the delays of a full, traditional appraisal.
