Frequently Asked Questions

Find clear answers to common questions.

A real estate construction loan provides financing for builders developing new residential properties. These loans typically fund the vertical construction of spec homes, custom homes, or small residential developments. Funds are distributed in draws as construction progresses and the property is completed. Construction loans allow builders to finance projects without tying up large amounts of their own capital.
Spec home construction loans provide builders with financing to build homes without a pre-sold buyer. The lender funds the construction in stages through draw schedules as the project progresses. Once construction is completed, the builder sells the home and repays the loan. These loans are commonly used by professional builders developing inventory homes in growing markets.
A fix and flip loan is a short-term real estate investment loan used to purchase, renovate, and resell a property. Investors use fix and flip financing to acquire distressed or undervalued properties, renovate them, and sell them for a profit. These loans typically cover both the purchase price and renovation costs and are structured with short loan terms.
A bridge loan is a short-term financing solution that allows real estate investors to quickly acquire or refinance properties while they execute a business plan. Bridge loans are commonly used for property renovations, stabilization of rental properties, or transitional real estate investments where traditional financing may not yet be available.
Real estate investor loans are designed for experienced investors purchasing rental properties, fix-and-flip projects, or portfolio investments. Qualification is typically based on factors such as project experience, property value, investment strategy, and the borrower’s financial profile. Professional real estate operators often use these loans to scale their portfolios more efficiently.

Private real estate lenders typically finance a variety of projects including:

• Spec home construction
• Ground-up residential development
• Fix and flip projects
• Rental property acquisitions
• Bridge financing for transitional properties
• Small development projects

These financing solutions help builders and investors execute projects that traditional banks may not fund as quickly or flexibly.

Real estate investment loans can often close significantly faster than traditional bank loans. While timelines vary depending on the project and underwriting process, many private real estate lenders can close loans within a few weeks once due diligence and documentation are completed.

A construction loan finances the building of a new property from the ground up. Funds are distributed in construction draws as work progresses.

A bridge loan, on the other hand, provides short-term financing for existing properties that require renovation, stabilization, or repositioning before long-term financing or sale.
