Hard money is a method, not an insult. On this card the underwriting is turned around: instead of the borrower carrying the file, the property does. The live paragraph says it in the client's own words, that very minimal documentation is required, that in some cases an appraisal is not needed, and that rather than focusing on the borrower Loan Goat is heavily underwriting the property. The equity underneath the loan, up to 75% LTV at the ceiling and usually less on a file with a history, is what makes that possible.
The credit line on this card prints a 650 floor, the same as the rest of the bridge program, and above it the benefits go further than most lenders will put in writing: defaults and notices of default, matured loans and bailouts are read against the property rather than ruled out. Those are the three situations where a borrower is usually told to come back in two years, and they are exactly the situations this product was built for.
Speed is the second half of the product. A clean file can close in as quickly as 3 days, faster than the 5-7 day standard, because there is less to verify when the decision rests on the asset. Terms run one or two years and loans reach $25,000,000, with rates from 9.00% to 13.00%, and a file with a history tends to price toward the upper end of that range, which is the honest price of that flexibility.
Terms, requirements and benefits on this page are printed exactly as Loan Goat publishes them.
