1. What is the difference between a real estate investment loan (asset based) and traditional bank loans?
2. What is the loan term?
3. What are your rates and fees?
Our rates and fees will vary depending on the quality of the deal and your personal financial situation, but the interest rate will range between 10% and 13% and the origination fees will range from 2% to 5%. Each deal will also have the following fees:
Fee | Fee Amount |

Doc Fee | $450.00 |
Flood Determination Fee | $45.00 |

4. Are there any fees that are paid up front?
The Processing Fee and the Valuation Fee are due at acceptance of committed terms. All other fees are payable on the HUD or upon Draw Inspection
5. How do I know how much to pay for a property?
We typically suggest not paying more than 75% of ARV minus repairs, If you need help coming up with this figure please fill put the quick app and a representative will be in touch.
6. I found a property, but I am unsure about the After Repaired Value or repair costs. Can you help me determine if it is a good deal?
Yes. Please fill out the Quick App on our website to submit an inquiry. An associate will typically reach out within two hours of an inquiry during normal working hours
7. How much can I borrow?
This again will vary some depending on the quality of the deal and your personal financial situation, but we will loan up to 75% of the After Repaired Value (ARV) of the property. Take again the example above of a property worth $100,000.00 with $15,000.00 in repairs. We might loan as much as $55,000.00 towards the purchase of the house with an additional $15,000.00 held in escrow for you to repair the property. At this time, we do not have a minimum or maximum loan amount.
8. Will you also finance the repairs?
Yes, upon proper inspection funds will be released as the value of the asset improves.
9. What are your credit requirements?
Our minimum credit score is 580, however rate and terms can be adjusted based on credit factors.
10. How much cash do I need to bring to closing?
This is determined on a deal-by-deal basis. We encourage you to reach out to a representative to discuss your unique scenario
11. How much available cash will I need to qualify?
We will provide an estimate before commitment, but a good rule of thumb is 6 months’ worth of payments plus one-third of the cost of repairs.
12. What if I don’t have enough cash? Can I use my credit?
We can take accessible credit into consideration for liquidity
13. Do you loan on rental property?
