Frequently Asked Questions About Fix & Flip Loans
What is a fix & flip loan and why is it ideal for investors?
A fix & flip loan is a short-term, asset-based loan specifically designed for real estate investors who purchase properties, renovate them, and then sell them for a profit. It's ideal because it offers fast funding, flexible underwriting (often based on the property's potential, not just the borrower's credit), and the ability to finance both the purchase and the renovation costs, which traditional banks typically don't cover.
How fast can I get funded for a fix & flip project?
We prioritize speed to ensure you don't miss out on lucrative opportunities. For qualified fix & flip 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 crucial for competitive markets and tight closing windows.
What types of properties qualify for your fix & flip loans?
We lend on a wide range of residential and some commercial property types suitable for renovation and resale. This includes single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, small multi-unit apartment buildings, and even some mixed-use properties. Our focus is on the property's potential ARV and the profitability of your rehab plan.
How is the After Repair Value (ARV) determined for fix & flip loans?
The ARV is a critical component of fix & flip lending, as it determines the maximum loan amount. We determine ARV by utilizing Broker's Price Opinions (BPOs) or conducting our own thorough internal valuations. This process involves analyzing recent comparable sales of fully renovated properties in the area, considering your proposed scope of work, and projecting the property's market value post-renovation. This allows us to move quickly without the delays of a traditional appraisal.
