Private Loans
Private loans are asset-based and allow businesses to leverage the value of their assets to secure funding quickly, without the hassle that often comes with traditional bank loans. These loans are short-term, which gives borrowers the opportunity to be free of the debt in just a few years. They’re ideal for “fix and flip” and income-generating property investing.
Flexible Financing
Overview
INCOME-GENERATION
Investors who expect to see profit generated from a new commercial real estate purchase typically don’t want long-term funding. That’s because they can repay the loan as soon as the property becomes profitable. With a traditional mortgage, early repayment can incur penalties and extra fees. Speak to a broker about private loans for your next income-generating investment.
EQUIPMENT
Next to real estate, equipment can be your business’s highest expense. Private loans break down the cost over time so that even borrowers with bad credit can afford the machines and tech they need. The value of the equipment or other assets can be used to secure the loan without having to qualify for credit-based lending.
FIX & FLIP
Depending on the market, the rehab and resell business can be highly competitive. Buyers with a cash offer skip to the front of the line when it comes to getting a seller’s attention. Private loans can be approved within 24 hours, so you have the cash you need to secure the right properties at the right time.
STARTUPS
Startup businesses often have trouble securing traditional financing, simply because they haven’t been in business long enough. Private loans enable startups to get funding for real estate, equipment, technology, and working capital in a fraction of the time. As long as the startup has valuable assets to secure the loan, it’s easy to get approved.
