What is a Fix and Flip Loan?
Fix and flip loans, tailored for house flippers, are short-term loans ideal for financing the purchase and renovation of fixer-upper properties. These loans feature higher interest rates due to their short-term nature compared to traditional mortgages. However, funding with FlipCo offers a number of advantages, including:
Quick Financing
FlipCo can fund these loans within 72 hours, which means you can take advantage of time-sensitive opportunities quickly.
Flexible Terms
Most loans have a term of 3 to 6 months, giving you plenty of time to complete your project.
High Loan Amounts
Fix and flip loans typically loan up to to $1 million, which should be more than enough to cover the purchase price and renovations for most properties.
What Clients Say About Us!
FAQ's
A hard money loan is a type of short-term financing secured by the property’s value rather than the borrower’s creditworthiness. FlipCo Financial specializes in hard money loans for real estate investors, offering quick access to capital for property purchases and rehab. These loans are ideal for fix-and-flip projects, BRRRR strategy investments, and other short-term needs.
As a true asset-based lender, FlipCo Financial focuses on the property’s potential rather than your credit score. We provide flexible terms, faster funding, and a borrower-friendly approach, removing common pain points like lengthy underwriting processes, excessive due diligence requirements, and excessive deal delays.
Loan amounts are based on the property’s projected After Repair Value (ARV). FlipCo will lend up to 75% ARV. We follow industry standard underwriting guidelines, ensuring comparable properties (comps) are similar in size, type, and location. Our approach helps investors maximize their projects’ potential while managing risk.
Yes! As a true asset-based lender, we prioritize the asset over the borrower’s credit. Because of this, we do not have a credit score minimum or require a credit check as part of the application process. Although credit does not impact funding qualification with FlipCo, it can impact a borrower’s ability to get long-term financing if the exit strategy is to hold the property as a rental.
Yes! While experience can strengthen your application, we work with first-time investors and provide guidance throughout the process. Budgets larger than $60,000 will require additional review if a first-time investor.
FlipCo’s streamlined process allows us to fund loans within a matter of days. We move as fast as you do! Once your application is complete and approved, we work quickly to ensure you can close your deal without delay.
To apply, you’ll need to complete a loan application, submit your project budget in the FlipCo format, property photos, and purchase contract. If you do not choose to finance your rehab with FlipCo, we will still need to see your proposed SOW to understand the final product for accurate valuation. Our team reviews this information to ensure the project aligns with our lending criteria. Upon Underwriting Approval, final due diligence documents include entity documents, EOI, and Proof of Funds.
Borrowers can easily submit property photos through FlipCo’s online application portal or via email to their assigned account manager. We require clear photos of the property’s exterior, interior, and any areas requiring repair or renovation to support the underwriting process.
For property inspections, FlipCo accepts formal inspection reports from licensed inspectors, appraisers, or contractors. In some cases, detailed walkthrough videos or virtual inspections may also be accepted, provided they meet our underwriting requirements. Our team will guide you on what’s needed for your specific loan application.
Apart from the subject property, FlipCo requires the borrowing entity be registered and operating within the US as well as in good standing. Borrowers must provide proof of current liquid funds to meet calculated Minimum Reserves; this requires providing most recent bank statement and screenshot of current bank balance within 10 business days of closing. No active or pending judgements, liens, foreclosures, or bankruptcies personally or associated with a business entity.
FlipCo lends on residential, single-family homes and multi-family units. Property types include single family residence, duplex, triplex, quad. The property must be for investment purposes and cannot be owner-occupied and/or the borrower’s primary residence. Manufactured homes and shared wall units such as townhouses and condos are excluded.
FlipCo lends in several states and recently expanded to Ohio cities. Our states include Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Check our website for a detailed list of states where we operate.
