1. Get pre-approved.
Our New Borrower Application focuses on your real estate experience and financial situation, and unlike most banks we do not focus on your income or require tax returns. We do run your credit score and request copies of your bank statements and company formation documents. There is no cost to fill out the application.
2. Provide property details.
After you have been approved as a borrower the next step is a Loan Request. We ask that you provide the contract for the property, and a detailed budget and timeline for the project.
3. Close the loan.
After step #1 and #2 above, the borrower closes the loan at a local title company. At closing you sign our loan documents, which include a Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, Loan Agreement, Non-homestead Affidavit and Personal Guaranty.
4. Request draws.
As you start your project we ask that you provide us with pictures or videos of the property for status updates. When you need money to pay contractors you simply email us your Draw Request.
Interest payments are invoiced and paid monthly via ACH.
5. Payoff.
After you have a buyer for the property our loan is paid off from the buyer’s source of financing.
