hard money loan
how are hard money loans structured? are they amortized or interest only?
if you got a 3 year hard money loan would you pay interest monthly for 3 years and pay principal in balloon payment after 3 years?
thanks

In my experience, they are generally interest only. Most HMLs are short-term; I could imagine longer-term HMLs being amortized, but I've never seen that...
