Why Use a Bridge Loan

Much faster funding times. We operate on a completely different schedule than banks because we only underwrite the value of the property. This means funding times within 7 days for most deals. We can fund in 2-3 days if you have an existing appraisal.
Force appreciation. Investors looking to create value will look to buy properties that have below-market rents or need substantial rehab. While banks will not fund the full potential of these properties (if they can fund at all), we will. Our bridge loans allow you to get temporary funding to stabilize the properties before refinancing with a bank or flipping.
Rebuilding Credit. While we might check your credit history, most of our lending criteria are around the property itself. We offer bridge loans even if you have bad credit.
Funding for your business. As a real estate investor, it’s best to avoid liability by holding assets in an LLC and not in your personal name. Our bridge loans are always made to your business.

FAQs

What are bridge loan lenders in Newark?

Bridge loan lenders in Newark are non-bank financial institutions that primarily focus on property value when extending short-term financing for real estate investments. They prioritize the asset’s worth over borrower qualifications, which sets them apart from traditional bank lenders.

As a Newark bridge loan lender, we offer quick funding solutions and specialize in properties that traditional banks might not consider due to factors like credit scores or property conditions. We also bring local expertise to the table, helping borrowers navigate Newark’s specific regulations, and providing access to professional networks, including contractors, appraisers, legal advisors, and brokers.

What are the specific advantages of using bridge loan lenders in Newark?

Using bridge loan lenders in Newark offers several specific benefits, including:

Rapid Funding: We can provide faster approval and funding, usually within 1 to 2 weeks, compared to traditional banks.
Flexible Property Financing: We are open to financing properties that banks might reject, such as those in need of extensive renovations or those with structural issues.
Low Credit Requirements: We can be more accommodating to borrowers with lower credit scores.
Local Expertise: We possess local knowledge that simplifies the loan process by ensuring compliance with Newark’s specific regulations.
Access to a Network: Borrowers gain access to a network of professionals, such as contractors, appraisers, legal advisors, and brokers, who can facilitate their real estate investment projects.

What types of properties are commonly funded by bridge loans in Newark?

Bridge loans in Newark are commonly used for various property types, including:

Fix-and-Flip Properties: These loans are ideal for real estate investors looking to purchase and renovate properties that traditional banks might not finance due to borrower credit issues or property conditions that don’t meet bank underwriting standards.
Rent Stabilization: Investors might use bridge loans to acquire properties with below-market rents, intending to stabilize the property by increasing rents. Once stabilized, they can refinance with a traditional bank at a lower interest rate.
Time-Sensitive Purchases: Bridge loans are suitable for investments that need to be completed within a timeframe that traditional banks cannot accommodate. Bridge loans can be secured in as little as 1 to 2 weeks.
Fast Cash Access: Real estate investors can use bridge loans to quickly access cash for other investments or projects by refinancing an existing property.
LLC Purchases: Bridge loans can be used to purchase properties under an LLC, as traditional banks rarely finance LLCs for real estate transactions.

What do bridge loan lenders look for?

As a bridge loan lender in Newark, we typically consider the following factors:

Borrower Structure: We prefer borrowers structured as LLCs rather than individuals.
Property Value: Properties should be purchased at or below market value.
Clear Title: A clear and marketable title with the collateral lien in the first position is typically required.
Financial Viability: Properties should make financial sense for both the borrower and lender, ensuring a feasible investment.
Rehab Plan: Compliance with a detailed rehab schedule for property renovations is essential.

How does a bridge loan work?

Bridge loans provide quick access to funds at interest rates ranging from 10% to 12%. Borrowers can expect to pay 1 to 3 points at closing. These loans usually have a duration of 12 to 24 months, with 12 months being the most common. The loan typically covers 65% to 80% of the purchase price, with 100% financing available for rehabilitation costs. Rehab funds are usually disbursed in stages, such as releasing $10,000 after each completed portion of the work.

What is the typical LTV ratio you offer for bridge loans in Newark?

The typical loan-to-value (LTV) ratio offered for bridge loans in Newark is often around 75% of the ARV (After Repair Value). This is the estimated value of the property after it has been renovated or repaired. We are typically willing to provide financing equivalent to 75% of the projected post-renovation value of the property. However, LTV ratios can vary depending on the type of property and the borrower’s financial profile.

Are there any special requirements or considerations for LLC borrowers in Newark?

For LLC borrowers in Newark, specific requirements might apply, such as LLC documentation and organizational details.

What is the average turnaround time for loan approval and funding in Newark?

The average turnaround time for loan approval and funding in Newark varies but typically ranges from 1 to 2 weeks.

Newark might have specific zoning regulations and local ordinances that bridge loan applicants should be aware of, which our team can efficiently navigate.
