For this example, let's say you have completed renovations, your property is now worth $100k, and you took out a bridge loan to fund your original purchase and the rehab costs.

Developers usually have expensive bridge debt on their construction projects, and a heavy incentive to deliver their inventory as rapidly as possible.

They will also build a bridge across Sunset Hills Road, improving the walkability of the Town Center to the metro, and invest “several million dollars” into improving the main Fountain Square in the Town Center.

We can offer both in house private money for bridge loans/fix n flips as well as all your other investor loans including DSCR, Conventional, Non-QM, and Commercial. 

I enjoyed what I did building cool bridges and hotels, but I was not too fond of the daily in and our grind.Jumping ship has brought bigger challenges, but I am happier tackling them with people I love working with.With respect to real estate & being a landlord, it's honestly something I do NOT ENJOY that much either (dealing with HOAs, repairs, vacancy, etc.)...unless you can buy properties and completely offload the property management, which was and is hard for me to do with my scarcity mindset. 

Your typical home loan mortgage company is not too familiar with complex multi family deals, bridge financing, and the nuances of asset based lending. 

You can also look into a cash out bridge loan at 80% LTV if the goal is to refinance into a conventional mortgage.

Bridge, portfolio, foreign national and other specialty loan products.Key Bank, FLorida flexible lender, HELOCs on second homes and rental properties. 90% LTV on primary.

When we stopped finding good deals about 5 or 6 years ago, we just started throwing every penny into paying down the principal across our fleet (paying off higher interest rates first, obviously).Looking back, we probably should have invested that money in the stock market because our interest payments were about 4 or 5%, and we could have doubled that with fairly safe stocks, but that's water under the bridge I guess. 

For those who've used bridge loans before, how did they impact your ability to capitalize on time-sensitive investment opportunities?
