It seems that quick flips are becoming quite common again, with the regular small-time investor. This is a favorite niche of ours. We particularly like to make these loans happen.
As you probably know, we work with a lot of people who are doing quick flip properties/projects. That means: buying low, generally fixing up (though not always), and then selling fast, at a fair price, for a nifty profit.
Until now, we have made many such loans, and we have done so as follows: 5 points, 12-13% interest (on most loans), a one-year term, and with no pre-payment penalties.
Lately we have had borrowers asking if we could offer a 6-month term with a lower up-front cost. The idea being that these folks could get in and out in six months or less—and thus save money on the cost of capital.
Well, we finally have an answer to that. We are presently offering the following program:
Six Month Quick Flip Loan
- Available for quick flip loans (with or without renovation expenses involved) or any other short-term loans
- 6-month term
- 10-11% (depending on LTV and down-payment)
- 2.5 points
- The option to extend for additional months at a rate of a half-point per month may be offered. The decision as to whether or not to offer an extension is ultimately at the lender’s discretion. Reasonable progress on the construction work will be a consideration. The Borrower must be timely on first 5 payments (paid within the grace period), and not past the balloon date.
- No prepayment penalty
We hope you like this program, and we predict that your clients will too. Let us know if we can take a look at a particular project for you.
