Documents

Before initiating your fix & flip real estate venture, it's essential to grasp the loan options available and select the most suitable one for your needs. Traditional mortgage loans for primary residences differ significantly from bridge loans tailored for property rehabilitation. While traditional mortgage underwriters typically avoid financing non-owner-occupied fix and flip projects, bridge loan underwriters steer clear of owner-occupied homes. Therefore, if your plan involves fixing and flipping a property before renting or selling it, you'll need to secure a lender experienced in underwriting such loans.

Lenders specializing in fix and flip real estate loans primarily focus on leveraging real estate as debt collateral, aiming for repayment within a short timeframe, typically 6 to 12 months. Hard money loans, commonly used for house flipping, serve as bridge financing until longer-term financing becomes available.

These loans typically cover the entire project cost, including the property purchase and renovation expenses. Maximum loan amounts vary by lender and are often calculated in two ways:

  1. Loan-to-Cost (LTC): The loan amount as a percentage of the anticipated project cost.
  2. Loan-to-Value (LTV): The loan amount as a percentage of the property's projected value post-repairs.

In the current lending environment, as of September 2020, private real estate lenders typically extend loans up to 70% of the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. This figure is expected to revert to normal rates of 80 to 90% LTV once the economy fully rebounds from the COVID downturn, though specifics may vary by lender.

So, what documentation will you need to secure your fix & flip loan with BridgeWise Lending?

  1. Bank statements for yourself and/or your business.
  2. A copy of your driver's license or government-issued ID.
  3. An LLC operating agreement.
  4. An executed sales contract for the property.
  5. Photos of the property.
  6. A list of any other properties owned by you or your business.
  7. Deed of Trust – A document that, when recorded, places a lien in the amount of the loan against the property that is collateral for the loan.
  8. Documentation of other real estate rehab projects that you've completed.
  9. Two years of your personal tax returns.
  10. Copies of your W2 forms.
  11. One month of pay stubs.
  12. Repair estimates from a licensed contractor.

Some lenders may require fewer documents, but it's wise to be prepared with the necessary paperwork before applying. Gathering these documents may take time, but it's crucial for the success of your project. BridgeWise Lending's loan professionals can offer guidance and assistance throughout the process.
