What Are Hard Money Loans?
Hard money loans are short-term, asset-based financing solutions designed for real estate investors looking to purchase, renovate, and resell properties quickly. Unlike traditional mortgages, hard money loans rely on the property’s after-repair value (ARV) rather than the borrower’s credit history.
Why Fix-and-Flip Investors Prefer Hard Money Loans
- Speed: These loans close in days, not weeks, allowing investors to seize profitable opportunities.
- Flexible Terms: Lenders focus on the property’s value, making it easier for investors to qualify.
- Funding for Repairs: Investors can finance both the purchase and renovation costs.
- Competitive Edge: Quick financing gives investors a leg up in competitive real estate markets.

- Evaluate Your Project: Ensure the ARV and renovation budget make financial sense.
- Submit Your Application: Hard money lenders prioritize property value and exit strategy.
