Fix & Flip Loan & New Construction Loan | Qualifying for a Line of Credit

You do not have to be an expert when it comes to the new construction and fix and flip loan programs. Working with a team of real estate professionals will help you with the investor rehab loan.  No experienced is required for the fix and flip loans, but comes with limitations.

Terms for the New Construction and Fix and Flip Loan

  • Minimum 620 FICO credit score for the investor rehab loan.
  • 1-4 units, condos and multifamily up to 20 units.
  • Borrower as individual, LLC or corporation.

6 Questions for Pricing and Terms

To generate quotes on the investor rehab loan, it is as easy as contacting a Loan Originator and answering the following questions:

  1. How many fix and flips have you done in the past 24 months?
  2. Estimate your credit score?
  3. How many years of real estate experience do you have?
  4. What is your net worth?
  5. How much liquidity do you have?
    • Eligible assets, but not limited to: checking account, money market, mutual funds, bonds, certificates of deposit, savings, life insurance cash surrender value, 1031 exchange, stocks, IRA (Roth/Self Directed), 401k, pension plans, annuity, gift funds, and HELOC.
  6. How many active rentals do you have?

The Two Fix and Flip Loan Programs

The fix and flip and new construction line of credit allows borrowers to obtain multiple loans with their line of credit (one loan per property) during the line of credit availability period.

The single fix and flip loan and new construction loan allows borrowers to purchase a single property, renovate, and sell without experience.

The loan will be secured by properties that borrower expects to fix and flip, refinance, build or a bridge loan that a borrower expects to hold as a rental property.  The investor rehab loan is interest only with a fixed rate of interest throughout the term.

Single Fix and Flip Loan

The single fix and flip loan allows borrowers with no experience to purchase property, renovate, and sell. They are designated for less experienced investors and terms improve as you complete projects. Liquidity requirement for this program is 20% and up to a maximum of 35% depending on experience level. There is no net worth requirement and no experience required, but will come with limitations until the first fix and flip loan is completed.
