Recently Funded Hard Money Loans

Our client obtained a Long Island hard money loan in the Hamptons (Quogue) to refinance an existing construction loan and allow for additional capital to finish the project.  This is an expansive 7,000+ square foot home located on a waterfront lot and is expected to have high end finishes.  At the time the loan was made, the as-is value was appraised at $6.6m, with an as-complete value appraisal of nearly $9m.

This loan was originated to finance a cosmetic fix and flip.  This is a large 4,300 sqft foot home located in a high demand area of Dix Hills.  The home was purchased significantly under market value, with instant equity created day one. The rehab will include interior painting, updating the kitchen (including appliance upgrades), bathrooms, and some exterior clean up.
Recently Funded Money Loans
This property was purchased under market value for $600,000.  In addition to funding the majority of the purchase price, 100% of the rehab budget was also provided to the borrower.  Within just 3 months, the property was listed on the market, and ultimately sold shortly thereafter.  After a smooth process all around, our client has become a repeat borrower, continuing to focus on the Staten Island market. 

Why Use a Hard Money Loan

  1. If you need funding fast. As non-US Citizen, a typical bank may take months to review your loan application.  If you have put down a deposit on a property, you face losing the deposit unless you can get a fast mortgage to close the loan.  We can help in these situations by funding within 5 days.  In fact, we have previously funded a loan in just 1 day!
  2. You lack the required documentation. Sometimes, it’s not a question of time, but the difficulty in producing the documents that a US bank requires to fund your mortgage. You may not have an established credit history in the US, a US address, or be able to show US income.  The good news is that we do not require a credit history or such documentation for Foreign National real estate investors.
  3. There is an issue with the property. As a Foreign National, construction funding may be harder to obtain from a bank.  If you are considering purchasing an investment property that is not completed or needs rehab, we will be able to help by providing you a hard money loan while the property is stabilized.
  4. If you would like a US LLC or Corporation to own the property. A traditional bank is likely to require that a Foreign National real estate investor is listed directly on the mortgage. If you prefer to purchase your real estate investment property in a corporate entity such as an LLC, not only do we prefer that as well, we actually require it.  A perfect match!
