Hard Money Lenders Min Loan Amount

Posted

Will hard money lenders typically lend on properties less then 100k? I have someone who wants only 41k for this property with about 21k worth of repairs.

What's the ARV? Some HML in ohio might be able to lend you both the purchase and rehab.

    I've seen it happen.. it just depends on who you're asking.

    I can't help w/ a referral in Ohio but I'm sure if you search long enough you'll find someone.

    @Bailey Coleman There's a few HMLs that can lend on smaller amounts like that. I'd recommend shopping local since local HMLs would be more likely to fund your deal. Another option would be local banks/credit unions since they are known to lend on smaller amounts like this

    Maybe @Owen Dashner can help?

    Yes, most of the reputable lenders have a min loan amount of 65k - 75k with a minimum of 40k - 50k of that amount going toward the purchase.

    I've been down this road before with a few investors who want to buy cheaper homes and what I can tell you is that - 1) It's not easy and 2) You WILL NOT like the rates, fees, and points.

    Think about it, what does a lender stand to make on an interest only loan for about 40k.  The rate would have to be 15+ and they will need to charge you 4 points just to make $1,600.

    It's just not worth their time.
