The Definitive Guide to Fund your Investment Property with Arizona Hard Money Loans

Why are more and more investors obtaining Arizona hard money loans?  There are certain investment strategies that make this type of loan appealing and lucrative.

This is a type of loan that is not obtained from a conventional financial institution.  The expense, almost always, is slightly higher than a conventional loan. The points involved can be about 2% to 6% and are the initial compensation to the broker.  The interest rates can be between 8% to 12% or more. There are a number of factors affecting the points and interest rates, such as loan duration, borrower credit, real estate type and the market fluctuations.

In the aftermath of the housing crisis in 2007-08, conventional loans came under stricter regulations. If you have good credit, proof of income, and are seeking a 30-year fixed rate loan, a conventional loan may be your best option. These types of loans are, however, under tighter underwriting restrictions and, if the loan officer cannot check all the boxes when you are applying for the loan, you may just be out of luck.

Conventional loans can be denied if you have bad credit, no income, lots of assets, or numerous liabilities.  Under various circumstances, you may benefit from Arizona hard money loan. These include:

• Unimproved land purchase

• Your purchasing an unusual property such as a church or marina

• A quick closure is required. You can often close in as little as a week

• Personal assets are limited

A hard money loan, in the instances above, may be your best bet.  An Arizona hard money lender will step in when a conventional loan will not work.  The ability to quickly purchase the property you have located can mean the difference between a successful investment and one that goes nowhere.

Arizona Hard Money Loans that are Flexible

Arizona hard money loans are often more flexible than conventional loans. And once you locate that unique property, timing is of the essence.  Typical Arizona Hard Money Lenders close within a week. At Level 4 Funding, we present you with an approval in as little as 24 hours, and with funding in as little as two days. This gives you the flexibility to go after those properties that traditional banks may view as too risky.  You may see a higher rate of return with a hard money lender. The hard money lender values the properties themselves and may be willing to loan at a higher loan-to-value ratio as long as you can demonstrate the potential for repair value improvements. When you get into a competitive bidding situation, the hard money lender can offer repair funding which may lead to acceptance of your offer.

Many contractors, real estate brokers, investors and developers have experienced financial distress such as bankruptcy, asset for foreclosures, and delinquent accounts.

Because of the failure to meet the credit score requirement with conventional loans, Arizona Hard Money Lenders are there to fill the gap.  To repair your credit rating and convert your hard money loan to a conventional loan, utilizing a hard money lender will assist you to archiving this with positive performance. With few employees and licensed as a real estate broker, a Hard Money Lender is an advantage since you are dealing with the decision maker directly.
