Loan programs

Investment property loans, by what the deal actually needs

Five programs cover almost every investment deal: a stabilized rental qualifies on its own rent, a transitional building needs short-term money, a renovation is underwritten on what the property will be worth, a build needs draws, and a 5+ unit apartment is priced on net operating income. Pick the one that matches your deal and see the real terms.

Which program fits your deal

The property already rents. A DSCR loan qualifies on the rent the property collects rather than your tax returns, which is why buy-and-hold investors use it for long-term holds.

You need to move before conventional money can. A bridge loan buys time — an auction purchase, a building between tenants, a refinance that has to close before a maturity date.

The property needs work before it can qualify for anything. Fix-and-flip financing is sized on the after-repair value and funds the renovation in draws.

There is nothing on the lot yet. Ground-up construction financing covers land and build budget, released against inspections as the build progresses.

The building has five or more units. Once you cross five units most lenders underwrite it as commercial real estate, on net operating income, occupancy, and unit mix.
