Leverage by experience

Experience is counted as verified fix-and-flip or rental investment properties completed within roughly the last three years. More experience means higher leverage and larger scopes.

*Rehab budget is generally capped at 2× your largest verified prior renovation budget. Budgets over $500K are reviewed individually. Up to 100% of the approved rehab budget can be financed at every tier. Purchase-price leverage of up to 90% depends on credit score and rehab scope. Top-tier 100% financing is subject to ARV limits, credit and deal approval, with rehab financed up to $200K.

Rehab scope definitions

Light

Budget up to 25% of purchase price: cosmetic updates, flooring, paint, fixtures.

Moderate

Budget 25–50% of purchase price: kitchens, baths, systems updates.

Heavy

Budget 50–100% of purchase price: gut renovations and major systems.

Extensive

Self-inspection valuation

On eligible loans, you can use our borrower self-inspection valuation option: you take your own photos of the property for the valuation, and no appraiser visit is required. Ask us whether your deal qualifies.

Credit check

No credit pull is needed to get a term sheet. When we review credit, we use a soft credit check only, with no hard pull.

How draws work

  • Your approved rehab budget is held back at closing and released in stages ("draws") as work is completed.
  • Before each draw, a third-party inspector verifies the completed work. The borrower pays the inspection cost.
  • Draws reimburse completed line items from your approved budget and scope of work.
  • For larger or heavy-rehab budgets, a third-party feasibility review of your budget and plans may be required before closing.

What we don't finance

Owner-occupied homes, mixed-use or commercial properties, 5+ unit buildings, co-ops, condotels, mobile/manufactured homes, leasehold properties, farms, vacation/seasonal rentals and unique or luxury properties. Florida condos are also ineligible.
