Fix and flip loans
Priced on the exit, drawn on inspection, closed in nine days.

What a Fix and flip loan actually is
A fix and flip loan is short-term, interest-only financing for the purchase and renovation of a property you intend to sell. We lend up to 85% of the purchase price and up to 100% of the renovation budget, subject to a total not exceeding 70% of after-repair value. That last constraint is the one that actually governs most deals.
Rehab money is not handed over at closing. It is held and released in draws against inspection of completed work, typically within 48 hours of your request. That protects both of us: you are not paying interest on money sitting idle, and we are not funding a project that has stalled at demolition.
Best suited to
- Investors renovating Philadelphia row homes for resale
- Operators with a track record who need speed more than they need the last quarter point
- Deals where the seller will not wait 30 days for conventional financing
- Projects with a clear, comparable-supported after-repair value
What comes with the loan
- After-repair value appraisal ordered with the scope of work attached, not guessed at
- Draw inspections within 48 hours of request, with funds wired the same day they clear
- Interest charged on the drawn balance only, not the full approved amount
- Extension options priced up front rather than negotiated under pressure at month eleven
- Median nine business day close on a complete file, which is what wins an off-market deal
- Exit planning into a DSCR loan if you decide to hold rather than sell
How a file moves
- 01
Deal review
Purchase price, scope of work, after-repair value and comparable sales. We will tell you within a day whether the exit supports the loan.
- 02
Approval
Credit, entity, liquidity and track record. Experience matters: it changes leverage, not eligibility.
- 03
Appraisal
As-is and after-repair value, with your scope of work in the appraiser's hands from the start.
- 04
Closing
Nine business days median on a complete file. In the entity, with a member guaranty.
- 05
Draws and exit
Request a draw, inspection inside 48 hours, funds wired on clearance. At completion, sell or refinance into a DSCR loan.
Why borrowers choose it
Rehab fully funded
Up to 100% of the renovation budget, subject to the 70% after-repair value cap.
Interest on drawn funds only
Undrawn rehab money costs you nothing until it is released.
Nine day close
Median nine business days on a complete file, which is how off-market deals are won.
A built-in exit
If the market turns and you would rather hold, we refinance the project into a DSCR loan.
What to watch out for
- The 70% after-repair value cap governs more deals than the 85% purchase figure does.
- First-time flippers are capped at 75% of purchase until there is a completed project to point to.
- Extensions cost points. Build a realistic schedule, then add six weeks.
Fix and flip questions we get asked
Still unclear? Call (215) 555-0145 and ask for the investor desk.
All questionsYou submit a draw request itemising completed work. An inspector visits within 48 hours, we verify against your scope of work, and funds are wired the same day the inspection clears. Most projects run three to five draws.
Three constraints apply at once: 85% of purchase, 100% of rehab, and 70% of after-repair value all-in. The after-repair value cap is what binds in most deals. On a $200,000 purchase with $80,000 of work and a $360,000 after-repair value, the cap is $252,000.
No, but experience changes leverage. A first-time investor is capped at 75% of purchase rather than 85% until there is a completed project on record. Two documented exits move you to full leverage.
We refinance it into a DSCR rental loan once the work is complete and it is leased or has a supportable market rent. Planning that exit at the start, rather than in month eleven, saves both time and points.
