What is the best loan to use in a fix and flip


 In regards to the Hard Money/Private Lending universe, you are looking at an interest only loan at about 10 to 12%. Down payment and rate are based upon your current real estate portfolio. If rehabilitation is needed, then reserves may be required as well.

Hi @Eugene Neal,

In the past two years I have 3 buy, rehab, and hold projects. Formatting the homes as room rentals.

I also have completed 2 flips, one land with plans developed and one home rehab.

3 years ago I completed another flip.

 From speaking with the funding team if you have a credit score over 640 then we should be able to fund this deal. The down payment amount required would be 20%.

Eugene,

Can you use the land equity of $76k in that down payment requirement as well as other project costs already paid such as plans and permit costs or is it 20% down for current build costs?

 Each deal is unique and I'll gladly run any scenario by the funding team. However most of the time the 20% is required.

 From reviewing their site, I wouldn't suggest it. 


 Yup - 15 seconds on the website tells you its bad news


 Anyone that is currently quoting a 6% rate without a full application is oblivious.

Hi,

I am trying to get my first investment property, and a couple of banks I spoke to are asking to see 6-12 months of reserves in my bank account to cover the mortgage.

I am working on saving money towards a deposit, but now it looks like I also need to save more to have in reserve.

How do you secure a loan without having to save 6-12 mths. 


We typically require a certain amount of reserve funds from borrowers in order to reduce the risk of default on the loan. Six months of reserve funds is a common requirement for first-time hard money borrowers because it provides a cushion of cash to cover unexpected expenses or temporary disruptions in cash flow that could prevent the borrower from making timely payments on the loan.

The reserve funds can be in the form of cash or liquid assets that can be easily accessed, such as savings accounts, money market funds, or stocks and bonds. The specific amount of reserve funds required may vary depending on the lender and the borrower's financial situation, but six months of reserves is a typical benchmark.

From researching their layouts and potential rates, I would stay away. They are not a direct lender and their last site update was in 2017. That is a reflag as 6 years and no redesign isn't acceptable. What type of loan were you requesting financing about?

I'm looking for an INDIVIDUAL PRIVATE LENDER that I can work with and build a relationship. I have several deals that are profitable and I'm needing someone I can trust to fund these deals. It's a win-win relationship.


 Are the deals where you are the investor as well? Or are these deals you are looking to wholesale?

Good evening does anyone know any good national 100% Hard Money/Private Money lenders?


 It is very rare to find a real 100% lender. Most direct lenders will require at least 20% down. 

Quote from @Ray Dipasupil:

Hey Y'all,

Could any of you kind folks refer me to top notch & legitimate wholesalers for KCMO, Jackson County, & surrounding areas? Looking to get some good wholesale deals done in KCMO. 

Much appreciated,

Ray
