Hard Money Loans

1. What is a Hard Money Loan?

Hard money loans are short-term, asset-based loans that provide fast financing for real estate investors. These loans are secured by the property itself rather than the borrower’s creditworthiness, making them ideal for those looking to quickly seize investment opportunities.

Hard money loans are approved much faster than traditional loans. You can typically get approval and funding within a few days, allowing you to act quickly on real estate opportunities.

Hard money loans require fewer documents than traditional loans. The primary requirement is the value of the property being financed. Lenders focus on the property’s potential rather than your credit score.

Yes, hard money loans can be used for residential, commercial, and investment properties, including those in need of repairs or renovations.

Hard money loans are typically short-term, ranging from 6 months to 3 years. They are ideal for projects like property flips, renovations, or bridging the gap until you secure long-term financing.

DSCR Loans

1. What is DSCR and how is it calculated?

DSCR stands for Debt Service Coverage Ratio. It’s calculated by dividing the property’s monthly rental income by the monthly debt payment (mortgage principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA fees). A DSCR of 1.0 or higher is typically required, meaning the property generates enough income to cover the debt.

No! One of the main benefits of DSCR loans is that they don’t require personal income verification or tax returns. The loan is qualified based solely on the property’s rental income and your credit profile.

Yes, for properties that are not currently rented, we can use a rental appraisal or market rent analysis to determine the expected rental income for DSCR calculation purposes.

No! Unlike conventional mortgages, DSCR loans don’t have a maximum property limit. You can finance as many investment properties as you qualify for based on each property’s individual cash flow.

Commercial / Bridge Loans

1. What types of commercial properties do you finance?

We finance a wide range of commercial properties including office buildings, retail centers, industrial/warehouse facilities, multi-family properties (5+ units), mixed-use buildings, self-storage facilities, and hotels. Contact us to discuss your specific property type.

Bridge loans are ideal when you need temporary financing to ‘bridge’ a gap. Common scenarios include: purchasing a new property before selling an existing one, accessing equity quickly for a time-sensitive opportunity, or securing temporary financing while arranging permanent financing.

Commercial loans typically offer terms of 5, 7, 10, or 25 years, with amortization periods that may extend beyond the loan term. Interest rates and terms depend on factors like property type, location, cash flow, and borrower strength.
